6 keepalived_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the keepalived
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the keepalived processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The keepalived processes execute with the keepalived_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep keepalived_t
20
21
22
24 The keepalived_t SELinux type can be entered via the keepalived_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the keepalived_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/keepalived
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 keepalived policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 keepalived processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for keepalived:
43
44 keepalived_t, keepalived_unconfined_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a keepalived_t can be used to make the
47 process type keepalived_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 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.
54 keepalived policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run keepalived with the tightest
56 access possible.

161 The SELinux process type keepalived_t can manage files labeled with the
162 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
163 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

237 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
238 type.
239
240 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
241
242 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
243 SELinux keepalived policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
244 their keepalived processes in as secure a method as possible.
245
246 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
247
248 SELinux defines the file context types for the keepalived, if you
249 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
250 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
251 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
252
253 semanage fcontext -a -t keepalived_var_run_t '/srv/mykeepalived_con‐
254 tent(/.*)?'
255 restorecon -R -v /srv/mykeepalived_content
256
257 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
258 match multiple files.
259
260 The following file types are defined for keepalived:
261
262
263
264 keepalived_exec_t
265
266 - Set files with the keepalived_exec_t type, if you want to transition
267 an executable to the keepalived_t domain.
268
269
270
271 keepalived_initrc_exec_t
272
273 - Set files with the keepalived_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
274 transition an executable to the keepalived_initrc_t domain.
275
276
277
278 keepalived_unconfined_script_exec_t
279
280 - Set files with the keepalived_unconfined_script_exec_t type, if you
281 want to transition an executable to the keepalived_unconfined_script_t
282 domain.
283
284
285
286 keepalived_var_run_t
287
288 - Set files with the keepalived_var_run_t type, if you want to store
289 the keepalived files under the /run or /var/run directory.
290
291
292
293 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
294 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
295 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
296 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
297
298
300 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
301 mappings.
302
303 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
304 process type is permissive.
305
306 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
307 icy modules.
308
309 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
310
311
312 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
313 icy settings.
