NETWORKMANAGER_DISPATCHER_TLP_SELINUX(8)

💅 NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_selinux — the SELinux policy for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp processes ✨

okay bestie, buckle up 🎀 this is the manual for NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_selinux(8), and it's literally the whole Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp processes. no cap.

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_selinux — Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp processes. that's it, that's the name, she's iconic 💖

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so SELinux secures the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp processes via flexible mandatory access control. think of it as the world's most thorough bodyguard 🫶

the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp processes execute with the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t SELinux type. you can check if you've got these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier 👑

for example:

ps -eZ | grep NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t

go check her vibe, she's probably there 💀

---

🚪 ENTRYPOINTS 🚪

the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t SELinux type can be entered via the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_script_t file type. that's the door, fr fr 🚪✨

the default entrypoint paths for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t domain are the following:

/usr/lib/NetworkManager/dispatcher.d/99tlp-rdw-nm

that's the one, bestie 💅

---

👑 PROCESS TYPES 👑

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. very organized of her 🌈

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

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

the following process types are defined for NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp:

• NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t

Note: semanage permissive -a NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t can be used to make the process type NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so like, she won't block you, but she WILL be taking notes 📝👀

---

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp with the tightest access possible. tightest access, tightest fit, main character energy 🧚

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

slay, she's on by default already 🌟

---

🗂️ MANAGED FILES 🗂️

the SELinux process type NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_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. SELinux is powerful but she's not doing that part for you, bestie 😭

• tlp_var_run_t

/run/tlp(/.*)?

cute regex, obsessed 💜

---

📁 FILE CONTEXTS 📁

SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. it's giving "every file gets a name tag" 🏷️✨

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

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

🌈 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🌈

SELinux defines the file context types for the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp. 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. two-step glow-up, literally 💅

semanage fcontext -a -t NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_script_t '/srv/NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myNetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. yes, regex, she's that girl 🧚‍♀️

the following file types are defined for NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp:

• NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_script_t — Set files with the NetworkManager_dispatcher_tlp_script_t type, if you want to treat the files as NetworkManager dispatcher tlp script data. periodt 💅

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. temporary vs permanent, choose wisely bestie 🙈

🛠️ 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. a whole GUI, fancy 🎀
