π NAME π
Okay so bestie, this is freeipmi_ipmidetectd_selinux β the Security Enhanced Linux policy page for the freeipmi_ipmidetectd processes, titled SELinux Policy freeipmi_ipmidetectd, and it lives in the freeipm...selinux(8) manual. It's basically the rulebook for how SELinux keeps those processes in check. β¨π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the freeipmi_ipmidetectd processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap, that's the whole vibe. π
The freeipmi_ipmidetectd processes execute with the freeipmi_ipmidetectd_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 freeipmi_ipmidetectd_t
πΈ ENTRYPOINTS πΈ
The freeipmi_ipmidetectd_t SELinux type can be entered via the freeipmi_ipmidetectd_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the freeipmi_ipmidetectd_t domain are the following:
/usr/bin/ipmidetectd
π PROCESS TYPES π
SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. 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 freeipmi_ipmidetectd policy is very flexible, allowing users to set up their freeipmi_ipmidetectd processes in as secure a method as possible. π«Ά
The following process types are defined for freeipmi_ipmidetectd:
freeipmi_ipmidetectd_t
Note:semanage permissive -a freeipmi_ipmidetectd_tcan be used to make the process typefreeipmi_ipmidetectd_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. π
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. freeipmi_ipmidetectd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run freeipmi_ipmidetectd with the tightest access possible. This is where you tune the vibe check, bestie. β¨
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
π MANAGED FILES π
The SELinux process type freeipmi_ipmidetectd_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. π

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 freeipmi_ipmidetectd policy is very flexible, allowing users to set up their freeipmi_ipmidetectd processes in as secure a method as possible. π
β¨ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT β¨
SELinux defines the file context types for the freeipmi_ipmidetectd. 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. π¦
semanage fcontext -a -t freeipmi_ipmidetectd_exec_t '/srv/freeipmi_ipmidetectd/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myfreeipmi_ipmidetectd_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. π§
The following file types are defined for freeipmi_ipmidetectd:
freeipmi_ipmidetectd_exec_tβ Set files with thefreeipmi_ipmidetectd_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thefreeipmi_ipmidetectd_tdomain.freeipmi_ipmidetectd_unit_file_tβ Set files with thefreeipmi_ipmidetectd_unit_file_ttype, if you want to treat the files as freeipmi ipmidetectd unit content.freeipmi_ipmidetectd_var_run_tβ Set files with thefreeipmi_ipmidetectd_var_run_ttype, if you want to store the freeipmi ipmidetectd files under the/runor/var/rundirectory.
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. π₯
