6 keepalived_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the keepalived
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the keepalived processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The keepalived processes execute with the keepalived_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep keepalived_t
20
21
22
24 The keepalived_t SELinux type can be entered via the keepalived_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the keepalived_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/keepalived
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 keepalived policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 keepalived processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for keepalived:
43
44 keepalived_t, keepalived_unconfined_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a keepalived_t can be used to make the
47 process type keepalived_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.
54 keepalived policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run keepalived with the tightest
56 access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to determine whether keepalived can connect to all TCP
61 ports, you must turn on the keepalived_connect_any boolean. Disabled by
62 default.
63
64 setsebool -P keepalived_connect_any 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. Disabled 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 The SELinux process type keepalived_t can manage files labeled with the
106 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
107 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

163 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
164 type.
165
166 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
167
168 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
169 SELinux keepalived policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
170 their keepalived processes in as secure a method as possible.
171
172 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
173
174 SELinux defines the file context types for the keepalived, if you
175 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
176 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
177 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
178
179 semanage fcontext -a -t keepalived_tmp_t '/srv/mykeepalived_con‐
180 tent(/.*)?'
181 restorecon -R -v /srv/mykeepalived_content
182
183 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
184 match multiple files.
185
186 The following file types are defined for keepalived:
187
188
189
190 keepalived_exec_t
191
192 - Set files with the keepalived_exec_t type, if you want to transition
193 an executable to the keepalived_t domain.
194
195
196
197 keepalived_tmp_t
198
199 - Set files with the keepalived_tmp_t type, if you want to store
200 keepalived temporary files in the /tmp directories.
201
202
203
204 keepalived_unconfined_script_exec_t
205
206 - Set files with the keepalived_unconfined_script_exec_t type, if you
207 want to transition an executable to the keepalived_unconfined_script_t
208 domain.
209
210
211
212 keepalived_unit_file_t
213
214 - Set files with the keepalived_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
215 the files as keepalived unit content.
216
217
218
219 keepalived_var_run_t
220
221 - Set files with the keepalived_var_run_t type, if you want to store
222 the keepalived files under the /run or /var/run directory.
223
224
225
226 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
227 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
228 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
229 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
230
231
233 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
234 mappings.
235
236 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
237 process type is permissive.
238
239 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
240 icy modules.
241
242 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
243
244
245 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
246 icy settings.
