libra_selinux: Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the libra processes

NAME

libra_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the libra processes

DESCRIPTION

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

The following file types are defined for libra:

libra_cgroup_read_exec_t

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

libra_initrc_exec_t

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

Paths:

/usr/bin/rhc-restorer, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mcollective, /etc/rc.d/init.d/libra

libra_initrc_tmp_t

- Set files with the libra_initrc_tmp_t type, if you want to store libra initrc temporary files in the /tmp directories.

libra_log_t

- Set files with the libra_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as libra log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.

libra_mail_tmp_t

- Set files with the libra_mail_tmp_t type, if you want to store libra mail temporary files in the /tmp directories.

libra_private_file_t

- Set files with the libra_private_file_t type, if you want to treat the files as libra private content.

libra_rw_file_t

- Set files with the libra_rw_file_t type, if you want to treat the files as libra rw content.

libra_tmp_t

- Set files with the libra_tmp_t type, if you want to store libra temporary files in the /tmp directories.

libra_var_lib_t

- Set files with the libra_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the libra files under the /var/lib directory.

libra_var_run_t

- Set files with the libra_var_run_t type, if you want to store the libra files under the /run directory.

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.

PORT TYPES

SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.

You can see the types associated with a port by using the following command:

semanage port -l

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

The following port types are defined for libra:

libra_port_t

Default Defined Ports: tcp 8021

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

The following process types are defined for libra:

libra_t, libra_initrc_t, libra_mail_t, libra_net_app_t, libra_min_app_t, libra_app_t, libra_min_t, libra_net_t, libra_cgroup_read_t

Note: semanage permissive -a PROCESS_TYPE can be used to make a process type permissive. Permissive process types are not denied access by SELinux. AVC messages will still be generated.

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 port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions

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