kanidm_ss...s_selinux(8)
bestie, welcome to the kanidm_ss...s_selinux(8) page π this is the manual for kanidm_sshkeys_selinux, and itβs giving SELinux policy for the kanidm_sshkeys processes. no cap, weβre keeping every path, type, boolean, command, and note. periodt.
β¨ NAME β¨
kanidm_sshkeys_selinux β Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the kanidm_sshkeys processes π
πΈ DESCRIPTION πΈ
okay so Security-Enhanced Linux secures the kanidm_sshkeys processes via flexible mandatory access control. iconic behavior, honestly.
The kanidm_sshkeys processes execute with the kanidm_sshkeys_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 kanidm_sshkeys_t
π¦ ENTRYPOINTS π¦
The kanidm_sshkeys_t SELinux type can be entered via the kanidm_sshkeys_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the kanidm_sshkeys_t domain are the following:
/usr/bin/kanidm_ssh_authorizedkeys
π PROCESS TYPES π
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 kanidm_sshkeys policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their kanidm_sshkeys processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for kanidm_sshkeys:
kanidm_sshkeys_tkanidm_sshkeys_direct_t
Note:semanage permissive -a kanidm_sshkeys_tcan be used to make the process typekanidm_sshkeys_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. kanidm_sshkeys policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run kanidm_sshkeys with the tightest access possible.
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.
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 kanidm_sshkeys policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their kanidm_sshkeys processes in as secure a method as possible.
π STANDARD FILE CONTEXT π
SELinux defines the file context types for the kanidm_sshkeys, 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 kanidm_sshkeys_exec_t '/srv/kanidm_sshkeys/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mykanidm_sshkeys_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for kanidm_sshkeys:
kanidm_sshkeys_direct_exec_tβ Set files with thekanidm_sshkeys_direct_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thekanidm_sshkeys_direct_tdomain.kanidm_sshkeys_exec_tβ Set files with thekanidm_sshkeys_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thekanidm_sshkeys_tdomain.
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₯ COMMANDS π₯
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 booleans.system-config-selinuxis a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
