NAME

6       couchdb_selinux  -  Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the couchdb pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures  the  couchdb  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  couchdb processes execute with the couchdb_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep couchdb_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  couchdb_t  SELinux type can be entered via the couchdb_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the couchdb_t domain are  the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/libexec/couchdb
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       couchdb  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their couchdb
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for couchdb:
43
44       couchdb_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a couchdb_t can be used to make the  process
47       type  couchdb_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  couchdb
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate  the  policy and run couchdb with the tightest access possi‐
56       ble.

PORT TYPES

171       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
172
173       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
174       command:
175
176       semanage port -l
177
178
179       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these ports.
180       SELinux couchdb policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
181       couchdb processes in as secure a method as possible.
182
183       The following port types are defined for couchdb:
184
185
186       couchdb_port_t
187
188
189
190       Default Defined Ports:
191                 tcp 5984,6984
192                 udp 5984,6984
193

MANAGED FILES

195       The  SELinux  process  type couchdb_t can manage files labeled with the
196       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
197       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
198

FILE CONTEXTS

251       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
252       type.
253
254       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
255
256       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
257       SELinux  couchdb  policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
258       couchdb processes in as secure a method as possible.
259
260       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
261
262       SELinux defines the file context types for the couchdb, if  you  wanted
263       to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
264       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
265       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
266
267       semanage   fcontext   -a   -t   couchdb_var_run_t  '/srv/mycouchdb_con‐
268       tent(/.*)?'
269       restorecon -R -v /srv/mycouchdb_content
270
271       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
272       match multiple files.
273
274       The following file types are defined for couchdb:
275
276
277
278       couchdb_conf_t
279
280       -  Set  files  with  the  couchdb_conf_t type, if you want to treat the
281       files as couchdb configuration data,  usually  stored  under  the  /etc
282       directory.
283
284
285
286       couchdb_exec_t
287
288       -  Set files with the couchdb_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
289       executable to the couchdb_t domain.
290
291
292
293       couchdb_initrc_exec_t
294
295       - Set files with the couchdb_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
296       tion an executable to the couchdb_initrc_t domain.
297
298
299
300       couchdb_log_t
301
302       -  Set files with the couchdb_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
303       as couchdb log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
304
305
306
307       couchdb_tmp_t
308
309       - Set files with the couchdb_tmp_t type, if you want to  store  couchdb
310       temporary files in the /tmp directories.
311
312
313
314       couchdb_unit_file_t
315
316       - Set files with the couchdb_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
317       files as couchdb unit content.
318
319
320
321       couchdb_var_lib_t
322
323       - Set files with the couchdb_var_lib_t type, if you want to  store  the
324       couchdb files under the /var/lib directory.
325
326
327
328       couchdb_var_run_t
329
330       -  Set  files with the couchdb_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
331       couchdb files under the /run or /var/run directory.
332
333
334
335       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
336       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
337       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
338       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
339
340

COMMANDS

342       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
343       mappings.
344
345       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
346       process type is permissive.
347
348       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
349       icy modules.
350
351       semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
352
353       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
354
355
356       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
357       icy settings.
