6 nagios_unconfined_plugin_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for
7 the nagios_unconfined_plugin processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nagios_unconfined_plugin processes
11 via flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The nagios_unconfined_plugin processes execute with the nagios_uncon‐
14 fined_plugin_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
15 running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep nagios_unconfined_plugin_t
20
21
22
24 The nagios_unconfined_plugin_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the nagios_unconfined_plugin_t domain
28 are the following:
29
30 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/.*
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 nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to set‐
40 up their nagios_unconfined_plugin processes in as secure a method as
41 possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for nagios_unconfined_plugin:
44
45 nagios_unconfined_plugin_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a nagios_unconfined_plugin_t can be used to
48 make the process type nagios_unconfined_plugin_t permissive. SELinux
49 does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux
50 denials) messages are still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is extremely flexible and has several
56 booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run nagios_uncon‐
57 fined_plugin with the tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
62 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
63 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
64 ean. Enabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
71 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
72 default.
73
74 setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
75
76
77
78 If you want to allow any process to mmap any file on system with
79 attribute file_type, you must turn on the domain_can_mmap_files bool‐
80 ean. Enabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P domain_can_mmap_files 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to allow all domains write to kmsg_device, while kernel is
87 executed with systemd.log_target=kmsg parameter, you must turn on the
88 domain_can_write_kmsg boolean. Disabled by default.
89
90 setsebool -P domain_can_write_kmsg 1
91
92
93
94 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
95 you must turn on the domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
96
97 setsebool -P domain_fd_use 1
98
99
100
101 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
102 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
103 default.
104
105 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
106
107
108
109 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
110 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
111
112 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
113
114
115
116 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
117 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
118
119 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
120
121
122
123 If you want to allow syslogd the ability to call nagios plugins. It is
124 turned on by omprog rsyslog plugin, you must turn on the logging_sys‐
125 logd_run_nagios_plugins boolean. Disabled by default.
126
127 setsebool -P logging_syslogd_run_nagios_plugins 1
128
129
130
131 If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
132 space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on
133 the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
134
135 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
136
137
138
139 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the
140 secure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
141
142 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
143
144
145
146 If you want to boolean to determine whether the system permits loading
147 policy, setting enforcing mode, and changing boolean values. Set this
148 to true and you have to reboot to set it back, you must turn on the
149 secure_mode_policyload boolean. Enabled by default.
150
151 setsebool -P secure_mode_policyload 1
152
153
154
155 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
156 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
157 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
158 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selin‐
159 uxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by default.
160
161 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1
162
163
164
165 If you want to allow all unconfined executables to use libraries
166 requiring text relocation that are not labeled textrel_shlib_t, you
167 must turn on the selinuxuser_execmod boolean. Enabled by default.
168
169 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execmod 1
170
171
172
173 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
174 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
175 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
176 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_exec‐
177 stack boolean. Enabled by default.
178
179 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1
180
181

187
188
189
191 The SELinux process type nagios_unconfined_plugin_t can manage files
192 labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the
193 default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need
194 to have DAC permissions.
195
196 file_type
197
198 all files on the system
199
200
202 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
203 type.
204
205 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
206
207 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
208 SELinux nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users
209 to setup their nagios_unconfined_plugin processes in as secure a method
210 as possible.
211
212 The following file types are defined for nagios_unconfined_plugin:
213
214
215
216 nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t
217
218 - Set files with the nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t type, if you want
219 to transition an executable to the nagios_unconfined_plugin_t domain.
220
221
222
223 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
224 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
225 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
226 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
227
228
230 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
231 mappings.
232
233 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
234 process type is permissive.
235
236 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
237 icy modules.
238
239 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
240
241
242 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
243 icy settings.
