NAME¶

phc2sys_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the phc2sys processes

DESCRIPTION¶

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the phc2sys processes via flexible mandatory access control.

The phc2sys processes execute with the phc2sys_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.

For example:

ps -eZ | grep phc2sys_t

ENTRYPOINTS¶

The phc2sys_t SELinux type can be entered via the phc2sys_exec_t file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the phc2sys_t domain are the following:

/usr/sbin/phc2sys

PROCESS TYPES¶

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system

You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps

Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux phc2sys policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their phc2sys processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for phc2sys:

phc2sys_t

Note: semanage permissive -a phc2sys_t can be used to make the process type phc2sys_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

BOOLEANS¶

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. phc2sys policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run phc2sys with the tightest access possible.

If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

MANAGED FILES¶

The SELinux process type phc2sys_t can manage files labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS¶

SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type.

You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls

Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux phc2sys policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their phc2sys processes in as secure a method as possible.

STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

SELinux defines the file context types for the phc2sys, if you wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.

semanage fcontext -a -t phc2sys_unit_file_t '/srv/myphc2sys_content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myphc2sys_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

The following file types are defined for phc2sys:

phc2sys_exec_t

- Set files with the phc2sys_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the phc2sys_t domain.

phc2sys_unit_file_t

- Set files with the phc2sys_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the files as phc2sys unit content.

Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

COMMANDS¶

semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.

semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.

semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.

semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
