6 varnishd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the varnishd pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the varnishd processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The varnishd processes execute with the varnishd_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep varnishd_t
20
21
22
24 The varnishd_t SELinux type can be entered via the varnishd_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the varnishd_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/varnishd
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 varnishd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their varnishd
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for varnishd:
43
44 varnishd_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a varnishd_t can be used to make the process
47 type varnishd_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
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. var‐
54 nishd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run varnishd with the tightest access
56 possible.
57

178 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
179
180 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
181 command:
182
183 semanage port -l
184
185
186 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
187 SELinux varnishd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
188 varnishd processes in as secure a method as possible.
189
190 The following port types are defined for varnishd:
191
192
193 varnishd_port_t
194
195
196
197 Default Defined Ports:
198 tcp 6081-6082
199
201 The SELinux process type varnishd_t can manage files labeled with the
202 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
203 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

253 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
254 type.
255
256 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
257
258 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
259 SELinux varnishd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
260 varnishd processes in as secure a method as possible.
261
262 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
263
264 SELinux defines the file context types for the varnishd, if you wanted
265 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
266 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
267 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
268
269 semanage fcontext -a -t varnishd_var_run_t '/srv/myvarnishd_con‐
270 tent(/.*)?'
271 restorecon -R -v /srv/myvarnishd_content
272
273 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
274 match multiple files.
275
276 The following file types are defined for varnishd:
277
278
279
280 varnishd_etc_t
281
282 - Set files with the varnishd_etc_t type, if you want to store varnishd
283 files in the /etc directories.
284
285
286
287 varnishd_exec_t
288
289 - Set files with the varnishd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
290 executable to the varnishd_t domain.
291
292
293
294 varnishd_initrc_exec_t
295
296 - Set files with the varnishd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
297 sition an executable to the varnishd_initrc_t domain.
298
299
300
301 varnishd_tmp_t
302
303 - Set files with the varnishd_tmp_t type, if you want to store varnishd
304 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
305
306
307
308 varnishd_var_lib_t
309
310 - Set files with the varnishd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
311 varnishd files under the /var/lib directory.
312
313
314
315 varnishd_var_run_t
316
317 - Set files with the varnishd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
318 varnishd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
319
320
321
322 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
323 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
324 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
325 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
326
327
329 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
330 mappings.
331
332 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
333 process type is permissive.
334
335 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
336 icy modules.
337
338 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
339
340 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
341
342
343 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
344 icy settings.
