NAME

pegasus_openlmi_system_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pegasus_openlmi_system processes

DESCRIPTION

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pegasus_openlmi_system processes via flexible mandatory access control.

The pegasus_openlmi_system processes execute with the pegasus_openlmi_system_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 pegasus_openlmi_system_t

ENTRYPOINTS

The pegasus_openlmi_system_t SELinux type can be entered via the pegasus_openlmi_system_exec_t file type.

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

/usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Fan-cimprovagt, /usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Networking-cimprovagt, /usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_PowerManagement-cimprovagt

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 psP Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux pegasus_openlmi_system policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pegasus_openlmi_system processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for pegasus_openlmi_system:

pegasus_openlmi_system_t

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

If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 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

If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory, you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

MANAGED FILES

The SELinux process type pegasus_openlmi_system_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/heartbeat(/.*)?

       /

       /initrd

/var/run/systemd/ask-password-block(/.*)?

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 lsP Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux pegasus_openlmi_system policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their pegasus_openlmi_system processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following file types are defined for pegasus_openlmi_system:

pegasus_openlmi_system_exec_t

- Set files with the pegasus_openlmi_system_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the pegasus_openlmi_system_t domain.

Paths:: /usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Fan-cimprovagt, /usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_Networking-cimprovagt, /usr/libexec/pegasus/cmpiLMI_PowerManagement-cimprovagt

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.
