NAME¶
samba_net_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the samba_net processes
DESCRIPTION¶
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the samba_net processes via flexible mandatory access control.
The samba_net processes execute with the samba_net_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 samba_net_t
ENTRYPOINTS¶
The samba_net_t SELinux type can be entered via the samba_net_exec_t file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the samba_net_t domain are the following:
/usr/bin/net
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 samba_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their samba_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for samba_net:
samba_net_t
Note: semanage permissive -a samba_net_t can be used to make the process type samba_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. samba_net policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run samba_net 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. Disabled 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
If you want to support NFS home directories, you must turn on the use_nfs_home_dirs boolean. Enabled by default.
setsebool -P use_nfs_home_dirs 1
If you want to support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1
MANAGED FILES¶
The SELinux process type samba_net_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.
auth_cache_t
/var/cache/coolkey(/.*)?
ctdbd_var_lib_t
/var/lib/ctdb(/.*)?
/var/lib/ctdbd(/.*)?
krb5_host_rcache_t
/var/tmp/krb5_0.rcache2
/var/cache/krb5rcache(/.*)?
/var/tmp/nfs_0
/var/tmp/DNS_25
/var/tmp/host_0
/var/tmp/imap_0
/var/tmp/HTTP_23
/var/tmp/HTTP_48
/var/tmp/ldap_55
/var/tmp/ldap_487
/var/tmp/ldapmap1_0
krb5_keytab_t
/var/kerberos/krb5(/.*)?
/etc/krb5.keytab
/etc/krb5kdc/kadm5.keytab
/var/kerberos/krb5kdc/kadm5.keytab
realmd_var_cache_t
/var/cache/realmd(/.*)?
samba_net_tmp_t
samba_secrets_t
/etc/samba/smbpasswd
/etc/samba/passdb.tdb
/etc/samba/MACHINE.SID
/etc/samba/secrets.tdb
samba_var_t
/var/nmbd(/.*)?
/var/lib/samba(/.*)?
/var/cache/samba(/.*)?
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 samba_net policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their samba_net processes in as secure a method as possible.
STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
SELinux defines the file context types for the samba_net, 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 samba_net_exec_t
'/srv/samba_net/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mysamba_net_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for samba_net:
samba_net_exec_t
- Set files with the samba_net_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the samba_net_t domain.
samba_net_tmp_t
- Set files with the samba_net_tmp_t type, if you want to store samba net temporary files in the /tmp directories.
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.
