cobblerd_selinux(8)  cobblerd SELinux Policy documentation cobblerd_selinux(8)

NAME
       cobblerd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cobblerd pro‐
       cesses

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

BOOLEANS
       SELinux	policy	is  customizable based on least access required.  cob‐
       blerd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that	 allow
       you  to manipulate the policy and run cobblerd with the tightest access
       possible.

       If you want to allow Cobbler to connect to the network using  TCP,  you
       must turn on the cobbler_can_network_connect boolean.

       setsebool -P cobbler_can_network_connect 1

       If  you want to allow Cobbler to access nfs file systems, you must turn
       on the cobbler_use_nfs boolean.

       setsebool -P cobbler_use_nfs 1

       If you want to allow HTTPD scripts and modules to  connect  to  cobbler
       over  the  network, you must turn on the httpd_can_network_connect_cob‐
       bler boolean.

       setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_cobbler 1

       If you want to allow Cobbler to access cifs file systems, you must turn
       on the cobbler_use_cifs boolean.

       setsebool -P cobbler_use_cifs 1

NSSWITCH DOMAIN
SHARING FILES
       If  you	want to share files with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync,
       Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and  public_con‐
       tent_rw_t.   These  context  allow any of the above domains to read the
       content.	 If you want a particular domain to write to  the  public_con‐
       tent_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean.

       Allow  cobblerd	servers	 to read the /var/cobblerd directory by adding
       the public_content_t file type to the directory and  by	restoring  the
       file type.

       semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/cobblerd(/.*)?"
       restorecon -F -R -v /var/cobblerd

       Allow  cobblerd	servers	 to read and write /var/tmp/incoming by adding
       the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file
       type.   This also requires the allow_cobblerdd_anon_write boolean to be
       set.

       semanage	 fcontext  -a  -t  public_content_rw_t	 "/var/cobblerd/incom‐
       ing(/.*)?"
       restorecon -F -R -v /var/cobblerd/incoming

       If  you	want  to  allow Cobbler to modify public files used for public
       file transfer services., you must turn on the cobbler_anon_write	 bool‐
       ean.

       setsebool -P cobbler_anon_write 1

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

       The following file types are defined for cobblerd:

       cobblerd_exec_t

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

       cobblerd_initrc_exec_t

       -  Set files with the cobblerd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
       sition an executable to the cobblerd_initrc_t domain.

       cobblerd_unit_file_t

       - Set files with the cobblerd_unit_file_t type, if you  want  to	 treat
       the files as cobblerd unit content.

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

PORT TYPES
       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.

       You can see the types associated with a port  by	 using	the  following
       command:

       semanage port -l

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

       The following port types are defined for cobblerd:

       cobbler_port_t

       Default Defined Ports:
		 tcp 25151

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

       The following process types are defined for cobblerd:

       cobblerd_t

       Note: semanage permissive -a PROCESS_TYPE can be used to make a process
       type  permissive.  Permissive  process  types  are not denied access by
       SELinux. AVC messages will still be generated.

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  pol‐
       icy modules.

       semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions

       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
       icy settings.
