pki_tomcat_selinux(8) SELinux Policy pki_tomcat pki_tomcat_selinux(8)NAMEpki_tomcat_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the pki_tomcat
processes
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the pki_tomcat processes via flexible
mandatory access control.
The pki_tomcat processes execute with the pki_tomcat_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 pki_tomcat_t
ENTRYPOINTS
The pki_tomcat_t SELinux type can be entered via the pki_tomcat_exec_t
file type.
The default entrypoint paths for the pki_tomcat_t domain are the fol‐
lowing:
/usr/bin/pkidaemon
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
pki_tomcat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
pki_tomcat processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for pki_tomcat:
pki_tomcat_t, pki_tomcat_script_t
Note: semanage permissive -a pki_tomcat_t can be used to make the
process type pki_tomcat_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.
pki_tomcat policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
allow you to manipulate the policy and run pki_tomcat with the tightest
access possible.

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 pki_tomcat policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
their pki_tomcat processes in as secure a method as possible.
EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
pki_tomcat policy stores data with multiple different file context
types under the /var/lib/pki-ca directory. If you would like to store
the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/pki-ca /srv/pki-ca
restorecon -R -v /srv/pki-ca
pki_tomcat policy stores data with multiple different file context
types under the /var/lib/pki-kra directory. If you would like to store
the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/pki-kra /srv/pki-kra
restorecon -R -v /srv/pki-kra
pki_tomcat policy stores data with multiple different file context
types under the /var/lib/pki-ocsp directory. If you would like to
store the data in a different directory you can use the semanage com‐
mand to create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this
data under the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/pki-ocsp /srv/pki-ocsp
restorecon -R -v /srv/pki-ocsp
pki_tomcat policy stores data with multiple different file context
types under the /var/lib/pki-tks directory. If you would like to store
the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
the /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/pki-tks /srv/pki-tks
restorecon -R -v /srv/pki-tks
STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
SELinux defines the file context types for the pki_tomcat, 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 pki_tomcat_cache_t '/srv/pki_tomcat/con‐
tent(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/mypki_tomcat_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
match multiple files.
The following file types are defined for pki_tomcat:
pki_tomcat_cache_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_cache_t type, if you want to store the
files under the /var/cache directory.
pki_tomcat_cert_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_cert_t type, if you want to treat the
files as pki tomcat certificate data.
Paths:
/var/lib/pki-ca/alias(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki-kra/alias(/.*)?,
/var/lib/pki-tks/alias(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki-ocsp/alias(/.*)?,
/etc/pki/pki-tomcat/alias(/.*)?, /var/lib/ipa/pki-ca/publish(/.*)?
pki_tomcat_etc_rw_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_etc_rw_t type, if you want to treat the
files as pki tomcat etc read/write content.
Paths:
/etc/pki-ca(/.*)?, /etc/pki-kra(/.*)?, /etc/pki-tks(/.*)?,
/etc/pki-ocsp(/.*)?, /etc/pki/pki-tomcat(/.*)?, /etc/syscon‐
fig/pki/tomcat(/.*)?
pki_tomcat_exec_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_exec_t type, if you want to transition
an executable to the pki_tomcat_t domain.
pki_tomcat_lock_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_lock_t type, if you want to treat the
files as pki tomcat lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
pki_tomcat_log_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_log_t type, if you want to treat the
data as pki tomcat log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
tory.
Paths:
/var/log/pki-ca(/.*)?, /var/log/pki-kra(/.*)?, /var/log/pki-
tks(/.*)?, /var/log/pki-ocsp(/.*)?, /var/log/pki/pki-tomcat(/.*)?
pki_tomcat_tmp_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_tmp_t type, if you want to store pki
tomcat temporary files in the /tmp directories.
pki_tomcat_unit_file_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
the files as pki tomcat unit content.
pki_tomcat_var_lib_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_var_lib_t type, if you want to store
the pki tomcat files under the /var/lib directory.
Paths:
/var/lib/pki-ca(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki-kra(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki-
tks(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki-ocsp(/.*)?, /var/lib/pki/pki-tomcat(/.*)?
pki_tomcat_var_run_t
- Set files with the pki_tomcat_var_run_t type, if you want to store
the pki tomcat files under the /run or /var/run directory.
Paths:
/var/run/pki-ca.pid, /var/run/pki-kra.pid, /var/run/pki-tks.pid,
/var/run/pki-ocsp.pid, /var/run/pki/tomcat(/.*)?
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 data‐
base. 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 pol‐
icy modules.
semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
icy settings.
