NAME
virtd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the virtd processes DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the virtd processes via flexible mandatory access control. The virtd processes execute with the virtd_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 virtd_t ENTRYPOINTS
The virtd_t SELinux type can be entered via the unlabeled_t, proc_type, file_type, mtrr_device_t, filesystem_type, sysctl_type, virtd_exec_t file types. The default entrypoint paths for the virtd_t domain are the following: all files on the system, /dev/cpu/mtrr, /usr/sbin/libvirtd, /usr/bin/imgfac.py, /usr/sbin/virtlockd, /usr/bin/imagefactory, /usr/bin/nova- compute, /usr/sbin/condor_vm-gahp, /usr/bin/vios-proxy-host, /usr/bin/vios-proxy-guest 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 virtd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtd pro- cesses in as secure a method as possible. The following process types are defined for virtd: virt_qemu_ga_unconfined_t, virtd_lxc_t, virt_qmf_t, virt_qemu_ga_t, virt_bridgehelper_t, virtd_t Note: semanage permissive -a virtd_t can be used to make the process type virtd_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. virtd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run virtd with the tightest access possible.

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 virtd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtd processes in as secure a method as possible. The following port types are defined for virtd: virt_migration_port_t Default Defined Ports: tcp 49152-49216 virt_port_t Default Defined Ports: tcp 16509,16514 udp 16509,16514 MANAGED FILES
The SELinux process type virtd_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. file_type all files on the system 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 virtd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtd processes in as secure a method as possible. STANDARD FILE CONTEXT SELinux defines the file context types for the virtd, if you wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use restorecon to put the labels on disk. semanage fcontext -a -t virtd_exec_t '/srv/virtd/content(/.*)?' restorecon -R -v /srv/myvirtd_content Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. The following file types are defined for virtd: virtd_exec_t - Set files with the virtd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the virtd_t domain. Paths: /usr/sbin/libvirtd, /usr/bin/imgfac.py, /usr/sbin/virtlockd, /usr/bin/imagefactory, /usr/bin/nova-compute, /usr/sbin/condor_vm-gahp, /usr/bin/vios-proxy-host, /usr/bin/vios-proxy-guest virtd_initrc_exec_t - Set files with the virtd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the virtd_initrc_t domain. virtd_keytab_t - Set files with the virtd_keytab_t type, if you want to treat the files as kerberos keytab files. virtd_lxc_exec_t - Set files with the virtd_lxc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the virtd_lxc_t domain. virtd_unit_file_t - Set files with the virtd_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the files as virtd unit content. Paths: /usr/lib/systemd/system/.*xen.*.service, /usr/lib/systemd/system/virt.*.service, /usr/lib/systemd/system/libvirt.*.service 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 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 policy settings.
