cyrus_selinux(8)      cyrus SELinux Policy documentation      cyrus_selinux(8)

NAME
       cyrus_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cyrus processes

DESCRIPTION
       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cyrus processes via flexible manda‐
       tory access control.

NSSWITCH DOMAIN
       If you want to allow users to login using a sssd serve for the cyrus_t,
       you must turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean.

       setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

       If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos for the
       cyrus_t, you must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean.

       setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1

       If you want to allow system to run with NI for the  cyrus_t,  you  must
       turn on the allow_ypbind boolean.

       setsebool -P allow_ypbind 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	cyrus  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
       cyrus processes in as secure a method as possible.

       The following file types are defined for cyrus:

       cyrus_exec_t

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

       Paths:
	    /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyrus-master, /usr/lib/cyrus/master

       cyrus_initrc_exec_t

       -  Set  files with the cyrus_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
       tion an executable to the cyrus_initrc_t domain.

       cyrus_keytab_t

       - Set files with the cyrus_keytab_t type, if  you  want	to  treat  the
       files as kerberos keytab files.

       cyrus_tmp_t

       -  Set files with the cyrus_tmp_t type, if you want to store cyrus tem‐
       porary files in the /tmp directories.

       cyrus_var_lib_t

       - Set files with the cyrus_var_lib_t type, if you  want	to  store  the
       cyrus files under the /var/lib directory.

       Paths:
	    /var/imap(/.*)?, /var/lib/imap(/.*)?

       cyrus_var_run_t

       -  Set  files  with  the cyrus_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
       cyrus files under the /run directory.

       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.

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
       cyrus  policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cyrus pro‐
       cesses in as secure a method as possible.

       The following process types are defined for cyrus:

       cyrus_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.

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