sblim_reposd_selinux(8)
π NAME π
okay so this is sblim_reposd_selinux(8) β the SELinux policy page for the sblim_reposd processes, bestie. that's the whole vibe of this doc, and yes we're gonna read all of it together π«Ά
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the sblim_reposd processes via flexible mandatory access control. no cap, that's the flex.
The sblim_reposd processes execute with the sblim_reposd_t SELinux type. wanna check if you've got these processes running? run the ps command with the -Z qualifier. literally that easy.
For example:
ps -eZ | grep sblim_reposd_t
πͺ ENTRYPOINTS πͺ
The sblim_reposd_t SELinux type can be entered via the sblim_reposd_exec_t file type. that's the door, the portal, the main character entrance.
The default entrypoint paths for the sblim_reposd_t domain are the following:
/usr/bin/reposd
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 sblim_reposd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sblim_reposd processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for sblim_reposd:
sblim_reposd_t
Note:semanage permissive -a sblim_reposd_tcan be used to make the process typesblim_reposd_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
so yeah β permissive means it won't block stuff, but it WILL still log the receipts π
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sblim_reposd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run sblim_reposd with the tightest access possible. we love a tunable queen πΈ
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
π MANAGED FILES π
The SELinux process type sblim_reposd_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. (yes, SELinux said "not my job" on that one π)

ποΈ FILE CONTEXTS ποΈ
SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. it's giving β¨metadataβ¨
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 sblim_reposd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sblim_reposd processes in as secure a method as possible.
π STANDARD FILE CONTEXT π
SELinux defines the file context types for the sblim_reposd. 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. iconic two-step π
semanage fcontext -a -t sblim_reposd_exec_t
'/srv/sblim_reposd/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mysblim_reposd_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for sblim_reposd:
sblim_reposd_exec_t
- Set files with the
sblim_reposd_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thesblim_reposd_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.
temporary fix vs permanent glow-up, iykyk π₯
