6 zabbix_agent_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the zab‐
7 bix_agent processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the zabbix_agent processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The zabbix_agent processes execute with the zabbix_agent_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep zabbix_agent_t
20
21
22
24 The zabbix_agent_t SELinux type can be entered via the zab‐
25 bix_agent_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the zabbix_agent_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/bin/zabbix_agentd, /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd
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 zabbix_agent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their zab‐
40 bix_agent processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for zabbix_agent:
43
44 zabbix_agent_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a zabbix_agent_t can be used to make the
47 process type zabbix_agent_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. zab‐
54 bix_agent policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run zabbix_agent with the tight‐
56 est access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
61 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
62 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
69 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
72
73
74
75 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
76 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
83 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
84
85 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
86
87
88
89 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
90 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
91
92 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
94
95
96 If you want to allow Zabbix to run su/sudo, you must turn on the zab‐
97 bix_run_sudo boolean. Disabled by default.
98
99 setsebool -P zabbix_run_sudo 1
100
101
102
104 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
105
106 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
107 command:
108
109 semanage port -l
110
111
112 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
113 SELinux zabbix_agent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
114 their zabbix_agent processes in as secure a method as possible.
115
116 The following port types are defined for zabbix_agent:
117
118
119 zabbix_agent_port_t
120
121
122
123 Default Defined Ports:
124 tcp 10050
125
127 The SELinux process type zabbix_agent_t can manage files labeled with
128 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
129 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
130 missions.

195 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
196 type.
197
198 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
199
200 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
201 SELinux zabbix_agent policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
202 their zabbix_agent processes in as secure a method as possible.
203
204 The following file types are defined for zabbix_agent:
205
206
207
208 zabbix_agent_exec_t
209
210 - Set files with the zabbix_agent_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
211 tion an executable to the zabbix_agent_t domain.
212
213
214 Paths:
215 /usr/bin/zabbix_agentd, /usr/sbin/zabbix_agentd
216
217
218 zabbix_agent_initrc_exec_t
219
220 - Set files with the zabbix_agent_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to
221 transition an executable to the zabbix_agent_initrc_t domain.
222
223
224
225 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
226 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
227 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
228 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
229
230
232 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
233 mappings.
234
235 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
236 process type is permissive.
237
238 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
239 icy modules.
240
241 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
242
243 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
244
245
246 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
247 icy settings.
