NAME

       svirt_socket_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the svirt_socket processes

DESCRIPTION

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

       The svirt_socket processes execute with the svirt_socket_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 svirt_socket_t

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

       The following process types are defined for svirt_socket:

       svirt_socket_t

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

       If  you	want  to  deny	any  process  from ptracing or debugging any other processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
       default.

       setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1

       If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors, you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1

       If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you must turn on  the	domain_kernel_load_modules  boolean.  Disabled	by
       default.

       setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 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 enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P global_ssp 1

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.
