💅 sambagui_selinux(8) — the SELinux Policy for sambagui, bestie edition

okay so welcome to sambagui_selinux, the manual page for the SELinux policy that keeps an eye on all your sambagui processes. yes it's a whole thing and yes we're gonna get through it together 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

sambagui_selinux — the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sambagui processes. that's it, that's the name, she's serving exactly what she says on the tin 💅

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the sambagui processes via flexible mandatory access control. like, genuinely flexible. MAC but make it fashion.

The sambagui processes execute with the sambagui_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 sambagui_t

run that and see what's up, iykyk 🔥

🚪 ENTRYPOINTS 🚪

The sambagui_t SELinux type can be entered via the sambagui_exec_t file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the sambagui_t domain are the following:

/usr/share/system-config-samba/system-config-samba-mechanism.py

that's the one (1) main character path, no cap ✨

👑 PROCESS TYPES 👑

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 sambagui policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their sambagui processes in as secure a method as possible. obsessed with the security of it all, honestly 🌸

The following process types are defined for sambagui:

• sambagui_t

Note: semanage permissive -a sambagui_t can be used to make the process type sambagui_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. so like, she won't block you but she will absolutely still be taking notes 📝💀

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sambagui policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run sambagui with the tightest access possible. tightest access possible, bestie — we love a minimal-privilege queen 👑

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

so one's already on and one you gotta go turn on yourself. know the difference, it's giving attention to detail 💜

📁 MANAGED FILES 📁

The SELinux process type sambagui_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. yeah, SELinux isn't out here doing DAC's job for it — you still need the regular permissions too, fr fr.

krb5_host_rcache_t

/var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
/var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
/var/tmp/nfs_0
/var/tmp/DNS_25
/var/tmp/host_0
/var/tmp/imap_0
/var/tmp/HTTP_23
/var/tmp/HTTP_48
/var/tmp/ldap_55
/var/tmp/ldap_487
/var/tmp/ldapmap1_0

okay that's a lot of paths but we don't skip any of them here, we carry the whole list 🧚

systemd_passwd_var_run_t

/run/systemd/ask-password(/.*)?
/run/systemd/ask-password-block(/.*)?

the ask-password squad, iconic behavior 💅

🗂️ FILE CONTEXTS 🗂️

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 sambagui policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their sambagui processes in as secure a method as possible.

⭐ STANDARD FILE CONTEXT ⭐

SELinux defines the file context types for the sambagui. If you wanted to store files with these types in different paths, you need to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk. like, relabel responsibly bestie.

semanage fcontext -a -t sambagui_exec_t '/srv/sambagui/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mysambagui_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. regex girlies rise 🌈

The following file types are defined for sambagui:

• sambagui_exec_t — Set files with the sambagui_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the sambagui_t domain. that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly ✨

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 or you'll be sad later 😭

🛠️ 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. yes, a GUI, for when you want to click instead of type, no judgment 🖱️💖
