💖 pegasus_openlmi_storage_selinux — SELinux Policy for pegasus_openlmi_storage 💖

okay bestie, so this is the whole manual for the SELinux policy that wraps around the pegasus_openlmi_storage processes, and honestly? it's giving security queen. let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

pegasus_openlmi_storage_selinux — Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pegasus_openlmi_storage processes. that's the whole vibe, periodt.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pegasus_openlmi_storage processes via flexible mandatory access control. like, it's literally the bodyguard for these processes and it does not play around 💅

the pegasus_openlmi_storage processes execute with the pegasus_openlmi_storage_t SELinux type. you can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. super easy, no cap.

for example:

ps -eZ | grep pegasus_openlmi_storage_t

go off, ps. go off 🔥

🚪 ENTRYPOINTS 🚪

the pegasus_openlmi_storage_t SELinux type can be entered via the pegasus_openlmi_storage_exec_t file type. that's the VIP guest list bestie ✨

the default entrypoint paths for the pegasus_openlmi_storage_t domain are the following:

/usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Hardware-cimprovagt,
/usr/libexec/pegasus/pycmpiLMI_Storage-cimprovagt

two icons, two entrances, slay.

👑 PROCESS TYPES 👑

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. main character energy fr fr.

you can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps. yes, -Z again. she's consistent 💅

policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux pegasus_openlmi_storage policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their pegasus_openlmi_storage processes in as secure a method as possible. iconic behavior honestly.

the following process types are defined for pegasus_openlmi_storage:

  • pegasus_openlmi_storage_t
⚠️ Note: semanage permissive -a pegasus_openlmi_storage_t can be used to make the process type pegasus_openlmi_storage_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so like, she's chill but she's still watching 👀

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. pegasus_openlmi_storage policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run pegasus_openlmi_storage with the tightest access possible. tightest access = most aesthetic security, obviously.

  • 🧚 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

three booleans, three little toggles of destiny. flip responsibly bestie 🫶

📁 MANAGED FILES 📁

the SELinux process type pegasus_openlmi_storage_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 can't override DAC, she's powerful but she's not a miracle worker 😭

🗂️ FILE CONTEXTS 🗂️

SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. she needs the receipts, periodt.

you can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls. yep, -Z AGAIN. she's everywhere and we love a consistent queen 👑

policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux pegasus_openlmi_storage policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their pegasus_openlmi_storage processes in as secure a method as possible.

STANDARD FILE CONTEXT

SELinux defines the file context types for the pegasus_openlmi_storage, 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. a little two-step, but she slays it ✨

semanage fcontext -a -t pegasus_openlmi_storage_exec_t '/srv/pegasus_openlmi_storage/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mypegasus_openlmi_storage_content
💡 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. regex is her love language bestie 🥰

the following file types are defined for pegasus_openlmi_storage:

  • pegasus_openlmi_storage_exec_t — Set files with the pegasus_openlmi_storage_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the pegasus_openlmi_storage_t domain.

Paths:

/usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Hardware-cimprovagt,
/usr/libexec/pegasus/pycmpiLMI_Storage-cimprovagt
  • pegasus_openlmi_storage_lib_t — Set files with the pegasus_openlmi_storage_lib_t type, if you want to treat the files as pegasus openlmi storage lib data.
  • pegasus_openlmi_storage_tmp_t — Set files with the pegasus_openlmi_storage_tmp_t type, if you want to store pegasus openlmi storage temporary files in the /tmp directories.
  • pegasus_openlmi_storage_var_run_t — Set files with the pegasus_openlmi_storage_var_run_t type, if you want to store the pegasus openlmi storage files under the /run or /var/run directory.
⚠️ 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 = chcon, permanent = semanage fcontext + restorecon. iykyk 💅

🧰 COMMANDS 🧰

the admin besties you need in your contacts:

  • 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. for the girlies who prefer a visual moment 🎀
