6 collectd_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the col‐
7 lectd_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the collectd_script processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The collectd_script processes execute with the collectd_script_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep collectd_script_t
20
21
22
24 The collectd_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the col‐
25 lectd_script_exec_t, collectd_script_exec_t file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the collectd_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/collectd/collection3/bin/.*.cgi, /usr/share/collectd/collec‐
31 tion3/bin/.*.cgi
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for collectd_script:
44
45 collectd_script_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a collectd_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type collectd_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
49 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. col‐
55 lectd_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56 allow you to manipulate the policy and run collectd_script with the
57 tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
69 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
72
73
74
76 The SELinux process type collectd_script_t can manage files labeled
77 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
78 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
79 permissions.
80
81 collectd_rw_content_t
82
83
84 collectd_script_tmp_t
85
86
87
89 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
90 type.
91
92 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
93
94 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
95 SELinux collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
96 their collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
97
98 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
99
100 SELinux defines the file context types for the collectd_script, if you
101 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
102 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
103 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
104
105 semanage fcontext -a -t collectd_script_tmp_t '/srv/mycol‐
106 lectd_script_content(/.*)?'
107 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycollectd_script_content
108
109 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
110 match multiple files.
111
112 The following file types are defined for collectd_script:
113
114
115
116 collectd_script_exec_t
117
118 - Set files with the collectd_script_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
119 sition an executable to the collectd_script_t domain.
120
121
122
123 collectd_script_tmp_t
124
125 - Set files with the collectd_script_tmp_t type, if you want to store
126 collectd script temporary files in the /tmp directories.
127
128
129
130 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
131 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
132 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
133 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
134
135
137 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
138 mappings.
139
140 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
141 process type is permissive.
142
143 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
144 icy modules.
145
146 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
147
148
149 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
150 icy settings.
