SYSTEMD_STATUS_MAIL_GENERATOR_SELINUX(8)
π NAME π
okay bestie, this is the manual page for systemd_status_mail_generator_selinux, section (8) β Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the systemd_status_mail_generator processes π
β¨
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the systemd_status_mail_generator processes via flexible mandatory access control.
The systemd_status_mail_generator processes execute with the systemd_status_mail_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_status_mail_generator_t
πΈ ENTRYPOINTS πΈ
The systemd_status_mail_generator_t SELinux type can be entered via the systemd_status_mail_generator_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the systemd_status_mail_generator_t domain are the following:
/usr/lib/systemd/system-generators/status-mail-generator.sh
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_status_mail_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their systemd_status_mail_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for systemd_status_mail_generator:
systemd_status_mail_generator_t
Note:semanage permissive -a systemd_status_mail_generator_tcan be used to make the process typesystemd_status_mail_generator_tpermissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. ππ
π BOOLEANS π
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. systemd_status_mail_generator policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run systemd_status_mail_generator with the tightest access possible.
daemons_dontaudit_schedulingβ If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,sys_nice), you must turn on thedaemons_dontaudit_schedulingboolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
fips_modeβ If you want to allow all domains to execute infips_mode, you must turn on thefips_modeboolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P fips_mode 1
π§ MANAGED FILES π§
The SELinux process type systemd_status_mail_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(/.*)?
cluster_var_run_t/run/crm(/.*)?/run/cman_.*/run/rsctmp(/.*)?/run/aisexec.*/run/heartbeat(/.*)?/run/pcsd-ruby.socket/run/corosync-qnetd(/.*)?/run/corosync-qdevice(/.*)?/run/pcsd.socket/run/corosync.pid/run/cpglockd.pid/run/rgmanager.pid/run/cluster/rgmanager.sk
root_t/sysroot/.aleph-version.json/sysroot/ostree/deploy/.*-atomic/deploy(/.*)?//initrd/var/lib/ntp
π FILE CONTEXTS π
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_status_mail_generator policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their systemd_status_mail_generator processes in as secure a method as possible.
π STANDARD FILE CONTEXT π
SELinux defines the file context types for the systemd_status_mail_generator. 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.
semanage fcontext -a -t systemd_status_mail_generator_exec_t '/srv/systemd_status_mail_generator/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mysystemd_status_mail_generator_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. π§β¨
The following file types are defined for systemd_status_mail_generator:
systemd_status_mail_generator_exec_tβ Set files with thesystemd_status_mail_generator_exec_ttype, if you want to transition an executable to thesystemd_status_mail_generator_tdomain.systemd_status_mail_generator_unit_file_tβ Set files with thesystemd_status_mail_generator_unit_file_ttype, if you want to treat the files as systemd status mail 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
β COMMANDS β
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 booleanssystem-config-selinuxis a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
