NAME

6       mongod_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the mongod pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  mongod  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  mongod  processes  execute with the mongod_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 mongod_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  mongod_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the mongod_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the mongod_t domain are the following:
28
29       /usr/bin/mongod,   /usr/bin/mongos,    /usr/libexec/mongodb-scl-helper,
30       /usr/share/aeolus-conductor/dbomatic/dbomatic
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       mongod  policy  is  very  flexible allowing users to setup their mongod
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for mongod:
43
44       mongod_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a mongod_t can be used to make  the  process
47       type  mongod_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

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux  policy is customizable based on least access required.  mongod
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate the policy and run mongod with the tightest access possible.
56
57
58
59       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
60       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
61
62       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
63
64
65

PORT TYPES

67       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
68
69       You can see the types associated with a port  by  using  the  following
70       command:
71
72       semanage port -l
73
74
75       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these ports.
76       SELinux mongod policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their
77       mongod processes in as secure a method as possible.
78
79       The following port types are defined for mongod:
80
81
82       mongod_port_t
83
84
85
86       Default Defined Ports:
87                 tcp 27017-27019,28017-28019
88

MANAGED FILES

90       The  SELinux  process  type  mongod_t can manage files labeled with the
91       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
92       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

145       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
146       type.
147
148       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
149
150       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  files.
151       SELinux  mongod  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their
152       mongod processes in as secure a method as possible.
153
154       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
155
156       SELinux defines the file context types for the mongod, if you wanted to
157       store  files  with  these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
158       the semanage command  to  sepecify  alternate  labeling  and  then  use
159       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
160
161       semanage fcontext -a -t mongod_tmp_t '/srv/mymongod_content(/.*)?'
162       restorecon -R -v /srv/mymongod_content
163
164       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
165       match multiple files.
166
167       The following file types are defined for mongod:
168
169
170
171       mongod_exec_t
172
173       - Set files with the mongod_exec_t type, if you want to  transition  an
174       executable to the mongod_t domain.
175
176
177       Paths:
178            /usr/bin/mongod, /usr/bin/mongos, /usr/libexec/mongodb-scl-helper,
179            /usr/share/aeolus-conductor/dbomatic/dbomatic
180
181
182       mongod_initrc_exec_t
183
184       - Set files with the mongod_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to  transi‐
185       tion an executable to the mongod_initrc_t domain.
186
187
188       Paths:
189            /etc/rc.d/init.d/mongod, /etc/rc.d/init.d/mongos
190
191
192       mongod_log_t
193
194       -  Set  files with the mongod_log_t type, if you want to treat the data
195       as mongod log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
196
197
198       Paths:
199            /var/log/mongo.*, /var/log/aeolus-conductor/dbomatic.log.*
200
201
202       mongod_tmp_t
203
204       - Set files with the mongod_tmp_t type, if you  want  to  store  mongod
205       temporary files in the /tmp directories.
206
207
208
209       mongod_unit_file_t
210
211       -  Set files with the mongod_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat the
212       files as mongod unit content.
213
214
215       Paths:
216            /usr/lib/systemd/system/mongod.*, /usr/lib/systemd/system/mongos.*
217
218
219       mongod_var_lib_t
220
221       - Set files with the mongod_var_lib_t type, if you want  to  store  the
222       mongod files under the /var/lib directory.
223
224
225
226       mongod_var_run_t
227
228       -  Set  files  with the mongod_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
229       mongod files under the /run or /var/run directory.
230
231
232       Paths:
233            /var/run/mongo.*, /var/run/aeolus/dbomatic.pid
234
235
236       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
237       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
238       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
239       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
240
241

COMMANDS

243       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
244       mappings.
245
246       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
247       process type is permissive.
248
249       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
250       icy modules.
251
252       semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
253
254       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
255
256
257       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
258       icy settings.
