6 nsd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the nsd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nsd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The nsd processes execute with the nsd_t SELinux type. You can check if
13 you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the
14 -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep nsd_t
19
20
21
23 The nsd_t SELinux type can be entered via the nsd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the nsd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/nsd, /usr/sbin/nsdc, /usr/sbin/zonec, /usr/sbin/nsd-notify,
28 /usr/sbin/nsd-control, /usr/sbin/nsd-checkconf, /usr/sbin/nsd-check‐
29 zone, /usr/sbin/nsd-control-setup
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 nsd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nsd processes
39 in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for nsd:
42
43 nsd_t, nsd_crond_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a nsd_t can be used to make the process type
46 nsd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process
47 types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.
48
49
51 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. nsd
52 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
53 manipulate the policy and run nsd with the tightest access possible.
54
55
56
57 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
58 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
59 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
60
61 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
62
63
64
65 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
66 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
67
68 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
69
70
71
72 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
73 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
74
75 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
76
77
78
79 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
80 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
87 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
88
89 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
90
91
92
94 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
95
96 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
97 command:
98
99 semanage port -l
100
101
102 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
103 SELinux nsd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nsd
104 processes in as secure a method as possible.
105
106 The following port types are defined for nsd:
107
108
109 nsd_control_port_t
110
111
112
113 Default Defined Ports:
114 tcp 8952
115
117 The SELinux process type nsd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
118 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
119 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

181 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
182 type.
183
184 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
185
186 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
187 SELinux nsd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their nsd
188 processes in as secure a method as possible.
189
190 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
191
192 SELinux defines the file context types for the nsd, if you wanted to
193 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
194 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
195 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
196
197 semanage fcontext -a -t nsd_tmp_t '/srv/mynsd_content(/.*)?'
198 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynsd_content
199
200 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
201 match multiple files.
202
203 The following file types are defined for nsd:
204
205
206
207 nsd_conf_t
208
209 - Set files with the nsd_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files as
210 nsd configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
211
212
213
214 nsd_exec_t
215
216 - Set files with the nsd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an exe‐
217 cutable to the nsd_t domain.
218
219
220 Paths:
221 /usr/sbin/nsd, /usr/sbin/nsdc, /usr/sbin/zonec, /usr/sbin/nsd-
222 notify, /usr/sbin/nsd-control, /usr/sbin/nsd-checkconf,
223 /usr/sbin/nsd-checkzone, /usr/sbin/nsd-control-setup
224
225
226 nsd_log_t
227
228 - Set files with the nsd_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as
229 nsd log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
230
231
232
233 nsd_tmp_t
234
235 - Set files with the nsd_tmp_t type, if you want to store nsd temporary
236 files in the /tmp directories.
237
238
239
240 nsd_var_run_t
241
242 - Set files with the nsd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the nsd
243 files under the /run or /var/run directory.
244
245
246 Paths:
247 /var/run/nsd.pid, /var/run/nsd.ctl
248
249
250 nsd_zone_t
251
252 - Set files with the nsd_zone_t type, if you want to treat the files as
253 nsd zone data.
254
255
256 Paths:
257 /var/lib/nsd(/.*)?, /etc/nsd/primary(/.*)?, /etc/nsd/sec‐
258 ondary(/.*)?, /etc/nsd/nsd.db
259
260
261 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
262 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
263 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
264 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
265
266
268 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
269 mappings.
270
271 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
272 process type is permissive.
273
274 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
275 icy modules.
276
277 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
278
279 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
280
281
282 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
283 icy settings.
