πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

auditadm_sudo_selinux(8) is literally the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the auditadm_sudo processes. Bestie, this is the manpage that explains how SELinux keeps an eye on that whole auditadm_sudo situation. ✨


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the auditadm_sudo processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap, that’s the whole vibe.

The auditadm_sudo processes execute with the auditadm_sudo_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 auditadm_sudo_t

πŸ¦‹ ENTRYPOINTS πŸ¦‹

The auditadm_sudo_t SELinux type can be entered via the sudo_exec_t file type.

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

/usr/bin/sudo(edit)?

πŸŽ€ PROCESS TYPES πŸŽ€

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 auditadm_sudo policy is very flexible, allowing users to set up their auditadm_sudo processes in as secure a method as possible. Periodt.

The following process types are defined for auditadm_sudo:

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

✨ BOOLEANS ✨

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

  • fips_mode β€” 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
  • kerberos_enabled β€” if you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
  • nis_enabled β€” 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

πŸ‘‘ MANAGED FILES πŸ‘‘

The SELinux process type auditadm_sudo_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. Yeah, DAC is still in the group chat.

πŸ’… COMMANDS πŸ’…

  • 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.
