6 slapd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the slapd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the slapd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The slapd processes execute with the slapd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep slapd_t
19
20
21
23 The slapd_t SELinux type can be entered via the slapd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the slapd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/slapd
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 slapd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their slapd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for slapd:
40
41 slapd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a slapd_t can be used to make the process
44 type slapd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. slapd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run slapd with the tightest access possible.

245 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
246 type.
247
248 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
249
250 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
251 SELinux slapd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
252 slapd processes in as secure a method as possible.
253
254 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
255
256
257 slapd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
258 under the /var/lib/ldap directory. If you would like to store the data
259 in a different directory you can use the semanage command to create an
260 equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the /srv
261 dirctory you would execute the following command:
262
263 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/ldap /srv/ldap
264 restorecon -R -v /srv/ldap
265
266 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
267
268 SELinux defines the file context types for the slapd, if you wanted to
269 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
270 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
271 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
272
273 semanage fcontext -a -t slapd_var_run_t '/srv/myslapd_content(/.*)?'
274 restorecon -R -v /srv/myslapd_content
275
276 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
277 match multiple files.
278
279 The following file types are defined for slapd:
280
281
282
283 slapd_cert_t
284
285 - Set files with the slapd_cert_t type, if you want to treat the files
286 as slapd certificate data.
287
288
289
290 slapd_db_t
291
292 - Set files with the slapd_db_t type, if you want to treat the files as
293 slapd database content.
294
295
296 Paths:
297 /var/lib/ldap(/.*)?, /etc/openldap/slapd.d(/.*)?
298
299
300 slapd_etc_t
301
302 - Set files with the slapd_etc_t type, if you want to store slapd files
303 in the /etc directories.
304
305
306
307 slapd_exec_t
308
309 - Set files with the slapd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
310 executable to the slapd_t domain.
311
312
313
314 slapd_initrc_exec_t
315
316 - Set files with the slapd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
317 tion an executable to the slapd_initrc_t domain.
318
319
320
321 slapd_keytab_t
322
323 - Set files with the slapd_keytab_t type, if you want to treat the
324 files as kerberos keytab files.
325
326
327
328 slapd_lock_t
329
330 - Set files with the slapd_lock_t type, if you want to treat the files
331 as slapd lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
332
333
334
335 slapd_log_t
336
337 - Set files with the slapd_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as
338 slapd log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
339
340
341
342 slapd_replog_t
343
344 - Set files with the slapd_replog_t type, if you want to treat the
345 files as slapd replog data.
346
347
348
349 slapd_tmp_t
350
351 - Set files with the slapd_tmp_t type, if you want to store slapd tem‐
352 porary files in the /tmp directories.
353
354
355
356 slapd_tmpfs_t
357
358 - Set files with the slapd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store slapd
359 files on a tmpfs file system.
360
361
362
363 slapd_var_run_t
364
365 - Set files with the slapd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
366 slapd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
367
368
369 Paths:
370 /var/run/openldap(/.*)?, /var/run/ldapi, /var/run/slapd.pid,
371 /var/run/slapd.args
372
373
374 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
375 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
376 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
377 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
378
379
381 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
382 mappings.
383
384 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
385 process type is permissive.
386
387 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
388 icy modules.
389
390 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
391
392
393 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
394 icy settings.
