NAME

6       ipsec_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ipsec processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ipsec processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The ipsec processes execute with the  ipsec_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 ipsec_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The ipsec_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipsec_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the ipsec_t domain are the following:
26
27       /usr/libexec/strongimcv/.*,                 /usr/libexec/strongswan/.*,
28       /usr/lib/ipsec/spi,     /usr/lib/ipsec/pluto,    /usr/lib/ipsec/eroute,
29       /usr/libexec/ipsec/spi, /usr/libexec/ipsec/pluto, /usr/lib/ipsec/klips‐
30       debug,      /usr/libexec/ipsec/eroute,      /usr/libexec/ipsec/addconn,
31       /usr/libexec/ipsec/klipsdebug
32

PROCESS TYPES

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       ipsec policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their ipsec  pro‐
41       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
42
43       The following process types are defined for ipsec:
44
45       ipsec_t, ipsec_mgmt_t
46
47       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a ipsec_t can be used to make the process
48       type ipsec_t permissive. SELinux does not  deny  access  to  permissive
49       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
50       ated.
51
52

BOOLEANS

54       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.   ipsec
55       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
56       manipulate the policy and run ipsec with the tightest 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. Disabled by default.
91
92       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
93
94
95

PORT TYPES

97       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
98
99       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
100       command:
101
102       semanage port -l
103
104
105       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these ports.
106       SELinux ipsec policy is very flexible allowing  users  to  setup  their
107       ipsec processes in as secure a method as possible.
108
109       The following port types are defined for ipsec:
110
111
112       ipsecnat_port_t
113
114
115
116       Default Defined Ports:
117                 tcp 4500
118                 udp 4500
119

MANAGED FILES

121       The SELinux process type ipsec_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
122       lowing file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for  these
123       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

255       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
256       type.
257
258       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
259
260       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
261       SELinux  ipsec  policy  is  very flexible allowing users to setup their
262       ipsec processes in as secure a method as possible.
263
264       EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
265
266
267       ipsec policy stores data with multiple  different  file  context  types
268       under  the  /var/run/pluto  directory.   If you would like to store the
269       data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to  cre‐
270       ate an equivalence mapping.  If you wanted to store this data under the
271       /srv dirctory you would execute the following command:
272
273       semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/pluto /srv/pluto
274       restorecon -R -v /srv/pluto
275
276       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
277
278       SELinux defines the file context types for the ipsec, if you wanted  to
279       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
280       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
281       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
282
283       semanage   fcontext   -a   -t   ipsec_mgmt_devpts_t  '/srv/myipsec_con‐
284       tent(/.*)?'
285       restorecon -R -v /srv/myipsec_content
286
287       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
288       match multiple files.
289
290       The following file types are defined for ipsec:
291
292
293
294       ipsec_conf_file_t
295
296       -  Set  files with the ipsec_conf_file_t type, if you want to treat the

418
419
420       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
421       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
422       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
423       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
424
425

COMMANDS

427       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
428       mappings.
429
430       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
431       process type is permissive.
432
433       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
