NAME¶

setroubleshootd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the setroubleshootd processes

DESCRIPTION¶

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

The setroubleshootd processes execute with the setroubleshootd_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 setroubleshootd_t

ENTRYPOINTS¶

The setroubleshootd_t SELinux type can be entered via the setroubleshootd_exec_t file type.

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

/usr/sbin/setroubleshootd

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 setroubleshootd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their setroubleshootd processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for setroubleshootd:

setroubleshootd_t, setroubleshoot_fixit_t

Note: semanage permissive -a setroubleshootd_t can be used to make the process type setroubleshootd_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. setroubleshootd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run setroubleshootd with the tightest access possible.

If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1

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

If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

MANAGED FILES¶

The SELinux process type setroubleshootd_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 setroubleshootd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their setroubleshootd processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following file types are defined for setroubleshootd:

setroubleshootd_exec_t

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

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.
