π NAME
okay so bestie, quick intro: this is coreos_sulogin_force_generator_selinux β the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the coreos_sulogin_force_generator processes. that's the whole vibe. π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the coreos_sulogin_force_generator processes via flexible mandatory access control. literally its whole job. π
The coreos_sulogin_force_generator processes execute with the coreos_sulogin_force_generator_t SELinux type. you can check if you actually have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. for example:
ps -eZ | grep coreos_sulogin_force_generator_t
that's it. that's the flex. π¦
πͺ ENTRYPOINTS πͺ
The coreos_sulogin_force_generator_t SELinux type can be entered via the coreos_sulogin_force_generator_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the coreos_sulogin_force_generator_t domain are the following:
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/coreos-sulogin-force-generator
one single path. iconic, honestly. β¨
π PROCESS TYPES π
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. so like, every process gets its own little identity. main character energy for everyone. π
You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux coreos_sulogin_force_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their coreos_sulogin_force_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for coreos_sulogin_force_generator:
coreos_sulogin_force_generator_t
Note:semanage permissive -a coreos_sulogin_force_generator_tcan be used to make the process typecoreos_sulogin_force_generator_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so like, it's chill about it but it's still taking notes in the group chat. π
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. coreos_sulogin_force_generator policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run coreos_sulogin_force_generator with the tightest access possible. tightest access = bestie behavior fr fr. π«Ά
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 FILE CONTEXTS π
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. yeah, files have vibes too. π
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 coreos_sulogin_force_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their coreos_sulogin_force_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
πΈ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT πΈ
SELinux defines the file context types for the coreos_sulogin_force_generator, 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 coreos_sulogin_force_generator_exec_t '/srv/coreos_sulogin_force_generator/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mycoreos_sulogin_force_generator_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. yes, regex. we love a pattern-matching queen. π§
The following file types are defined for coreos_sulogin_force_generator:
coreos_sulogin_force_generator_exec_tβ Set files with thecoreos_sulogin_force_generator_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thecoreos_sulogin_force_generator_tdomain. that's the glow-up pipeline. βcoreos_sulogin_force_generator_unit_file_tβ Set files with thecoreos_sulogin_force_generator_unit_file_ttype, if you want to treat the files as coreos sulogin force generator unit content. slay. π
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. so like,chconis the temporary tattoo andsemanage fcontext+restoreconis the real ink. don't mix them up bestie. π
π οΈ COMMANDS π οΈ
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. a whole GUI, for when clicking > typing. no judgement. π±οΈβ¨
