π NAME
bestie, welcome to the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_selinux page (section 8) β Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid processes. The header vibe is literally SELinux Policy NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid, and we're about to get into it. π«Ά
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
okay so Security-Enhanced Linux secures the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid processes via flexible mandatory access control. no cap. π
The NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid processes execute with the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_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 NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_t
π¦ ENTRYPOINTS π¦
The NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_t SELinux type can be entered via the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_script_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_t domain are the following:
/usr/lib/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/04-iscsi
π PROCESS TYPES π
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 NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid:
NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_t
Note:semanage permissive -a NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_tcan be used to make the process typeNetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid 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
π MANAGED FILES π
The SELinux process type NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_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.
systemd_passwd_var_run_t/run/systemd/ask-password(/.*)?/run/systemd/ask-password-block(/.*)?
π FILE CONTEXTS π
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 NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid processes in as secure a method as possible.
πΈ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT πΈ
SELinux defines the file context types for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid, if you wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
semanage fcontext -a -t NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_script_t '/srv/NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myNetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid:
NetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_script_tβ Set files with theNetworkManager_dispatcher_iscsid_script_ttype, if you want to treat the files as NetworkManager dispatcher iscsid script data.
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with thechconcommand. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use thesemanage fcontextcommand. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to userestoreconto apply the labels.
β COMMANDS β
semanage fcontextcan also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.semanage permissivecan also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.semanage modulecan also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.semanage booleancan also be used to manipulate the booleanssystem-config-selinuxis a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
