6 collectd_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the col‐
7 lectd_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the collectd_script processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The collectd_script processes execute with the collectd_script_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep collectd_script_t
20
21
22
24 The collectd_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the col‐
25 lectd_script_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the collectd_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/collectd/collection3/bin/.*.cgi
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for collectd_script:
43
44 collectd_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a collectd_script_t can be used to make the
47 process type collectd_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. col‐
54 lectd_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run collectd_script with the
56 tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the httpd_en‐
68 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
75 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
78

82 The SELinux process type collectd_script_t can manage files labeled
83 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
84 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
85 permissions.
86
87 collectd_rw_content_t
88
89
90 collectd_script_tmp_t
91
92
93
95 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
96 type.
97
98 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
99
100 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
101 SELinux collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
102 their collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
103
104 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
105
106 SELinux defines the file context types for the collectd_script, if you
107 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
108 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
109 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
110
111 semanage fcontext -a -t collectd_script_exec_t '/srv/col‐
112 lectd_script/content(/.*)?'
113 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycollectd_script_content
114
115 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
116 match multiple files.
117
118 The following file types are defined for collectd_script:
119
120
121
122 collectd_script_exec_t
123
124 - Set files with the collectd_script_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
125 sition an executable to the collectd_script_t domain.
126
127
128
129 collectd_script_tmp_t
130
131 - Set files with the collectd_script_tmp_t type, if you want to store
132 collectd script temporary files in the /tmp directories.
133
134
135
136 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
137 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
138 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
139 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
140
141
143 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
144 mappings.
145
146 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
147 process type is permissive.
148
149 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
150 icy modules.
151
152 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
153
154
155 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
156 icy settings.
