timemaster_selinux(8)

✨ NAME ✨

Okay so bestie, this is timemaster_selinux, the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the timemaster processes — yes, the timemaster_selinux(8) page. 💅

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the timemaster processes via flexible mandatory access control. No cap, that's the whole vibe.

The timemaster processes execute with the timemaster_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 timemaster_t

🚪 ENTRYPOINTS 🚪

The timemaster_t SELinux type can be entered via the timemaster_exec_t file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the timemaster_t domain are the following:

/usr/bin/timemaster

👑 PROCESS TYPES 👑

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 timemaster policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their timemaster processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for timemaster:

• timemaster_t — the process type you're here for.

Note: semanage permissive -a timemaster_t can be used to make the process type timemaster_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. timemaster policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run timemaster with the tightest access possible.

• daemons_dontaudit_scheduling — If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. It is enabled by default.

setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1

• fips_mode — If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. It is enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

• nis_enabled — If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. It is disabled by default.

setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

🌸 MANAGED FILES 🌸

The SELinux process type timemaster_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.

• timemaster_var_run_t — default path:

/run/timemaster(/.*)?

🦋 FILE CONTEXTS 🦋

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 timemaster policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their timemaster processes in as secure a method as possible.

🎀 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🎀

SELinux defines the file context types for the timemaster. 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 timemaster_exec_t
'/srv/timemaster/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mytimemaster_content

Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.

The following file types are defined for timemaster:

• timemaster_exec_t — Set files with the timemaster_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the timemaster_t domain.
• timemaster_tmpfs_t — Set files with the timemaster_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store timemaster files on a tmpfs file system.
• timemaster_unit_file_t — Set files with the timemaster_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the files as timemaster unit content.
• timemaster_var_run_t — Set files with the timemaster_var_run_t type, if you want to store the timemaster files under the /run or /var/run directory.

Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.

💜 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.
