6 squid_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the squid processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the squid processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The squid processes execute with the squid_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 squid_t
19
20
21
23 The squid_t SELinux type can be entered via the squid_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the squid_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/squid, /usr/libexec/squid/cache_swap.sh
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 squid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their squid pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for squid:
40
41 squid_t, squid_cron_t, squid_script_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a squid_t can be used to make the process
44 type squid_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. squid
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run squid with the tightest access possible.

181 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
182
183 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
184 command:
185
186 semanage port -l
187
188
189 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
190 SELinux squid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
191 squid processes in as secure a method as possible.
192
193 The following port types are defined for squid:
194
195
196 squid_port_t
197
198
199
200 Default Defined Ports:
201 tcp 3128,3401,4827
202 udp 3401,4827
203
205 The SELinux process type squid_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
206 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
207 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

294 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
295 type.
296
297 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
298
299 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
300 SELinux squid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
301 squid processes in as secure a method as possible.
302
303 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
304
305
306 squid policy stores data with multiple different file context types
307 under the /var/log/squid directory. If you would like to store the
308 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
309 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
310 /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
311
312 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/log/squid /srv/squid
313 restorecon -R -v /srv/squid
314
315 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
316
317 SELinux defines the file context types for the squid, if you wanted to
318 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
319 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
320 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
321
322 semanage fcontext -a -t squid_var_run_t '/srv/mysquid_content(/.*)?'
323 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysquid_content
324
325 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
326 match multiple files.
327
328 The following file types are defined for squid:
329
330
331
332 squid_cache_t
333
334 - Set files with the squid_cache_t type, if you want to store the files
335 under the /var/cache directory.

364 an executable to the squid_cron_t domain.
365
366
367
368 squid_exec_t
369
370 - Set files with the squid_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
371 executable to the squid_t domain.
372
373
374 Paths:
375 /usr/sbin/squid, /usr/libexec/squid/cache_swap.sh
376
377
378 squid_htaccess_t
379
380 - Set files with the squid_htaccess_t type, if you want to treat the
381 file as a squid access file.
382
383
384
385 squid_initrc_exec_t

387 - Set files with the squid_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
388 tion an executable to the squid_initrc_t domain.
389
390
391
392 squid_log_t

407
408
409 squid_rw_content_t
410

444
445
446
447 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
448 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
449 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
450 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
451
452
454 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
455 mappings.
456
457 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
458 process type is permissive.
459
460 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
461 icy modules.
462
463 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
464
465 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
466
467
468 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
469 icy settings.
