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 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
76 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
77
78 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
79 command:
80
81 semanage port -l
82
83
84 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
85 SELinux prosody policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
86 prosody processes in as secure a method as possible.
87
88 The following port types are defined for prosody:
89
90
91 prosody_port_t
92
93
94
95 Default Defined Ports:
96 tcp 5280-5281
97
99 The SELinux process type prosody_t can manage files labeled with the
100 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
101 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

152 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
153 type.
154
155 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
156
157 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
158 SELinux prosody policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
159 prosody processes in as secure a method as possible.
160
161 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
162
163 SELinux defines the file context types for the prosody, if you wanted
164 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
165 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
166 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
167
168 semanage fcontext -a -t prosody_unit_file_t '/srv/myprosody_con‐
169 tent(/.*)?'
170 restorecon -R -v /srv/myprosody_content
171
172 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
173 match multiple files.
174
175 The following file types are defined for prosody:
176
177
178
179 prosody_exec_t
180
181 - Set files with the prosody_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
182 executable to the prosody_t domain.
183
184
185 Paths:
186 /usr/bin/prosody, /usr/bin/prosodyctl
187
188
189 prosody_log_t
190
191 - Set files with the prosody_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
192 as prosody log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
193
194
195
196 prosody_tmp_t
197
198 - Set files with the prosody_tmp_t type, if you want to store prosody
199 temporary files in the /tmp directories.
200
201
202
203 prosody_unit_file_t
204
205 - Set files with the prosody_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
206 files as prosody unit content.
207
208
209
210 prosody_var_lib_t
211
212 - Set files with the prosody_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
213 prosody files under the /var/lib directory.
214
215
216
217 prosody_var_run_t
218
219 - Set files with the prosody_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
220 prosody files under the /run or /var/run directory.
221
222
223
224 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
225 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
226 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
227 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
228
229
231 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
232 mappings.
233
234 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
235 process type is permissive.
236
237 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
238 icy modules.
239
240 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
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.
