sshd_net_selinux(8)

💖 sshd_net_selinux(8) — the SELinux policy page for sshd_net 💖

okay bestie, this is the manual page for the SELinux policy that covers sshd_net processes. It’s giving security-core, mandatory-access-control realness 💅✨

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

sshd_net_selinux — Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sshd_net processes. That’s the whole vibe of this page 🫶

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the sshd_net processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap.

The sshd_net processes execute with the sshd_net_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier. iykyk 👑

For example:

ps -eZ | grep sshd_net_t

---

🦋 PROCESS TYPES 🦋

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. Main character energy for every process, honestly.

You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps.

Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux sshd_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sshd_net processes in as secure a method as possible. Flexible but still locked down — the duality of SELinux 💅

The following process types are defined for sshd_net:

• sshd_net_t

Note: semanage permissive -a sshd_net_t can be used to make the process type sshd_net_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

---

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sshd_net policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run sshd_net with the tightest access possible. Slay, least privilege, slay. 🫶

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 sshd to use tcp wrappers, you must turn on the ssh_use_tcpd boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P ssh_use_tcpd 1

💅 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.

Toolbox unlocked, bestie — go customize responsibly 🧚✨
