<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">virtd_selinux
− Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the virtd
processes</p>
<h2>DESCRIPTION
<a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Security-Enhanced
Linux secures the virtd processes via flexible mandatory
access control.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The virtd
processes execute with the virtd_t SELinux type. You can
check if you have these processes running by executing the
<b>ps</b> command with the <b>−Z</b> qualifier.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">For
example:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>ps -eZ |
grep virtd_t</b></p>
<h2>ENTRYPOINTS
<a name="ENTRYPOINTS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The virtd_t
SELinux type can be entered via the <b>virtd_exec_t</b> file
type.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The default
entrypoint paths for the virtd_t domain are the
following:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">/usr/lib/virt-sysprep/firstboot.sh,

<h2>PROCESS TYPES
<a name="PROCESS TYPES"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
process types (domains) for each process running on the
system</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can see the
context of a process using the <b>−Z</b> option to
<b>ps</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Policy governs
the access confined processes have to files. SELinux virtd
policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their virtd
processes in as secure a method as possible.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following
process types are defined for virtd:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>virtd_t,
virt_bridgehelper_t, virt_qemu_ga_t,
virt_qemu_ga_unconfined_t, virtd_lxc_t</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note:
<b>semanage permissive -a virtd_t</b> 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.</p>
<h2>BOOLEANS
<a name="BOOLEANS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">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.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow virtual processes to run as userdomains, you must turn
on the virt_transition_userdomain boolean. Disabled by
default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
virt_transition_userdomain 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling
boolean. Enabled by default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
control the ability to mmap a low area of the address space,
as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn
on the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
mmap_low_allowed 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
nis_enabled 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the
secure_mode_insmod boolean. Disabled by default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
secure_mode_insmod 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably
indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an
attack. This executable should be reported in bugzilla, you
must turn on the selinuxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by
default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
selinuxuser_execheap 1</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">If you want to
allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable.
This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This
executable should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on
the selinuxuser_execstack boolean. Enabled by default.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>setsebool -P
selinuxuser_execstack 1</b></p>
<h2>PORT TYPES
<a name="PORT TYPES"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can see the
types associated with a port by using the following
command:</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>semanage
port -l</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">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.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">The following
port types are defined for virtd: <b><br>
virt_migration_port_t</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Default Defined
Ports:</p>
<p style="margin-left:26%;">tcp 49152-49216</p>

<h2>MANAGED FILES
<a name="MANAGED FILES"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">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.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>file_type</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">all files on
the system</p>
<h2>FILE CONTEXTS
<a name="FILE CONTEXTS"></a>
</h2>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux
requires files to have an extended attribute to define the
file type.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">You can see the
context of a file using the <b>−Z</b> option to
<b>ls</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">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.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>STANDARD
FILE CONTEXT</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">SELinux defines
the file context types for the virtd, 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.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>semanage
fcontext -a -t virtd_keytab_t
’/srv/myvirtd_content(/.*)?’ <br>
restorecon -R -v /srv/myvirtd_content</b></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em">Note: SELinux
often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match
multiple files.</p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><i>The
following file types are defined for virtd:</i></p>
<p style="margin-left:11%; margin-top: 1em"><b>virtd_exec_t</b></p>
