6 prosody_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the prosody pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the prosody processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The prosody processes execute with the prosody_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep prosody_t
20
21
22
24 The prosody_t SELinux type can be entered via the prosody_exec_t file
25 type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the prosody_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/prosody, /usr/bin/prosodyctl
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 prosody policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their prosody
40 processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for prosody:
43
44 prosody_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a prosody_t can be used to make the process
47 type prosody_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
49 ated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. prosody
54 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55 manipulate the policy and run prosody with the tightest access possi‐
56 ble.
57
58
59
60 If you want to permit to prosody to bind apache port. Need to be acti‐
61 vated to use BOSH, you must turn on the prosody_bind_http_port boolean.
62 Disabled by default.
63
64 setsebool -P prosody_bind_http_port 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
69 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
70 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
71
72 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
73
74
75
76 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
77 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
78
79 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
80
81
82
83 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
84 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
85
86 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
87
88
89
90 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
91 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
92
93 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
94
95
96
97 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
98 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
101
102
103
105 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
106
107 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
108 command:
109
110 semanage port -l
111
112
113 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
114 SELinux prosody policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
115 prosody processes in as secure a method as possible.
116
117 The following port types are defined for prosody:
118
119
120 prosody_port_t
121
122
123
124 Default Defined Ports:
125 tcp 5280-5281
126
128 The SELinux process type prosody_t can manage files labeled with the
129 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
130 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

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