sepolicy-transition(8)

💅 sepolicy-transition — it's giving "where can this domain go" energy

okay bestie, welcome to the sepolicy-transition(8) page, part of the sepolicy fam ✨ this one is lowkey a glow-up for your SELinux detective work and i'm obsessed.

---

✨ NAME ✨

sepolicy-transition — go read the SELinux Policy and make a whole process transition report out of it 🦋

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

sepolicy transition [-h] -s SOURCE

sepolicy transition [-h] -s SOURCE -t TARGET

---

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so here's the vibe: sepolicy transition will show you every single domain that a given SELinux source domain can transition to, and yes, it includes the entrypoint too. no gatekeeping here 💖

and if you also hand it a target domain? it goes full main character and examines the policy for all the transition paths from the source domain to the target domain, then lists those paths out for you. it's giving ✨map of the whole journey✨

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -h, --help — shows you the help message. the classic. the icon. always there for you 🫶
• -s, --source — you tell it the source SELinux domain type. this one's mandatory, bestie, no skipping 🎀
• -t, --target — you tell it the target SELinux domain type 🌸

---

🔥 EXAMPLE 🔥

want to list all the domain transition paths from init_t to httpd_t? say less:

# sepolicy transition -s init_t -t httpd_t

or if you just want every transition available from the samba domain — including entry points and the booleans controlling each transition — do this:

# sepolicy transition -s smbd_t

periodt. that's it. that's the whole assignment 💜
