πΈ NAME πΈ
systemd_debug_generator_selinux β the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the systemd_debug_generator processes. This page lives in the system...selinux(8) manual, bestie π
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the systemd_debug_generator processes via flexible mandatory access control. no cap, thatβs the whole point π
The systemd_debug_generator processes execute with the systemd_debug_generator_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 systemd_debug_generator_t
πͺ ENTRYPOINTS πͺ
The systemd_debug_generator_t SELinux type can be entered via the systemd_debug_generator_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the systemd_debug_generator_t domain are the following:
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/systemd-debug-generator
π§ PROCESS TYPES π§
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 systemd_debug_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their systemd_debug_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for systemd_debug_generator:
systemd_debug_generator_t
Note:semanage permissive -a systemd_debug_generator_tcan be used to make the process typesystemd_debug_generator_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. π
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. systemd_debug_generator policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run systemd_debug_generator with the tightest access possible.
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
ποΈ MANAGED FILES ποΈ
The SELinux process type systemd_debug_generator_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.
cluster_conf_t/etc/cluster(/.*)?
cluster_var_lib_t/var/lib/pcsd(/.*)?/var/lib/cluster(/.*)?/var/lib/openais(/.*)?/var/lib/pengine(/.*)?/var/lib/corosync(/.*)?/usr/lib/heartbeat(/.*)?/var/lib/heartbeat(/.*)?/var/lib/pacemaker(/.*)?

π·οΈ FILE CONTEXTS π·οΈ
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 systemd_debug_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their systemd_debug_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
π STANDARD FILE CONTEXT π
SELinux defines the file context types for the systemd_debug_generator. 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.
semanage fcontext -a -t systemd_debug_generator_exec_t '/srv/systemd_debug_generator/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mysystemd_debug_generator_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. π¦
The following file types are defined for systemd_debug_generator:
systemd_debug_generator_exec_tβ Set files with thesystemd_debug_generator_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thesystemd_debug_generator_tdomain.systemd_debug_generator_unit_file_tβ Set files with thesystemd_debug_generator_unit_file_ttype, if you want to treat the files as systemd debug generator unit content.
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. π
π» COMMANDS π»
semanage fcontextcan also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.semanage permissivecan also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.semanage modulecan also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.semanage booleancan also be used to manipulate the booleans.system-config-selinuxis a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
