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.
53
54
55
56 If you want to determine whether squid can connect to all TCP ports,
57 you must turn on the squid_connect_any boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59 setsebool -P squid_connect_any 1
60
61
62
63 If you want to determine whether squid can run as a transparent proxy,
64 you must turn on the squid_use_tproxy boolean. Disabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P squid_use_tproxy 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
71 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
72 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
73
74 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
75
76
77
78 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
79 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
80
81 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
82
83
84
85 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
86 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
87
88 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
89
90
91
92 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
93 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
94
95 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
96
97
98
99 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
100 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
101
102 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
103
104
105
107 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
108
109 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
110 command:
111
112 semanage port -l
113
114
115 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
116 SELinux squid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
117 squid processes in as secure a method as possible.
118
119 The following port types are defined for squid:
120
121
122 squid_port_t
123
124
125
126 Default Defined Ports:
127 tcp 3128,3401,4827
128 udp 3401,4827
129
131 The SELinux process type squid_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
132 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
133 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

221 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
222 type.
223
224 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
225
226 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
227 SELinux squid policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
228 squid processes in as secure a method as possible.
229
230 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
231
232
233 squid policy stores data with multiple different file context types
234 under the /var/log/squid directory. If you would like to store the
235 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
236 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
237 /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
238
239 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/log/squid /srv/squid
240 restorecon -R -v /srv/squid
241
242 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
243
244 SELinux defines the file context types for the squid, if you wanted to
245 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
246 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
247 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
248
249 semanage fcontext -a -t squid_ra_content_t '/srv/mysquid_content(/.*)?'
250 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysquid_content
251
252 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
253 match multiple files.
254
255 The following file types are defined for squid:
256
257
258
259 squid_cache_t

371
372
373
374 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
375 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
376 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
377 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
378
379
381 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
382 mappings.
383
384 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
385 process type is permissive.
386
387 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
388 icy modules.
389
390 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
391
392 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
393

395 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
396 icy settings.
