CFENGINE_MONITORD_SELINUX(8)

✨ cfengine_monitord_selinux(8) ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the cfengine_monitord_selinux manual page 💅 this is a section-8 page, and it's literally all about the SELinux policy for your cfengine_monitord processes 🫶

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

cfengine_monitord_selinux — the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cfengine_monitord processes 🎀

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cfengine_monitord processes via flexible mandatory access control. That's the whole vibe — mandatory access control, no cap 💅

Your cfengine_monitord processes execute with the cfengine_monitord_t SELinux type. Wanna check if you've got these processes running? Run the ps command with the -Z qualifier, like this:

ps -eZ | grep cfengine_monitord_t

Slay, now you can see them 👑

---

🦋 ENTRYPOINTS 🦋

So the cfengine_monitord_t SELinux type can be entered via the cfengine_monitord_exec_t file type 🌸

The default entrypoint paths for the cfengine_monitord_t domain are literally these:

/usr/bin/cf-monitord

That's it, that's the list 🎀

---

🌈 PROCESS TYPES 🌈

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system, which is honestly iconic of it 💜

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 cfengine_monitord policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their cfengine_monitord processes in as secure a method as possible. Secure queen energy 🔥

The following process types are defined for cfengine_monitord:

• cfengine_monitord_t

Note: semanage permissive -a cfengine_monitord_t can be used to make the process type cfengine_monitord_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. So like, it's chill but it's still logging everything, iykyk 👀

---

⭐ BOOLEANS ⭐

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. The cfengine_monitord policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run cfengine_monitord with the tightest access possible. We love a customizable queen 💅

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 cfengine_monitord_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 isn't doing everything for you, bestie 🙈

💜 FILE CONTEXTS 💜

SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. It's giving "everything needs a label" 💅

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 cfengine_monitord policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their cfengine_monitord processes in as secure a method as possible. Again. Because it's that flexible, bestie ✨

🌸 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🌸

SELinux defines the file context types for the cfengine_monitord, and 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. Like so:

semanage fcontext -a -t cfengine_monitord_exec_t '/srv/cfengine_monitord/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mycfengine_monitord_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. Regex girlies stay winning 🧚

The following file types are defined for cfengine_monitord:

• cfengine_monitord_exec_t — Set files with the cfengine_monitord_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the cfengine_monitord_t domain. Main character transition behavior, honestly 👑

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, know the difference fr fr 💀

---

🫶 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, for the girlies who don't do terminal (we don't judge) 🌸

aaaand that's the page, bestie 💖 this cutie came to you from cfengine_monitord, dated 26-10-06, and it's the cfengine_monitord_selinux(8) manual — go forth and label responsibly, ily, periodt 👑✨🎀
