6 nagios_unconfined_plugin_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for
7 the nagios_unconfined_plugin processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nagios_unconfined_plugin processes
11 via flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The nagios_unconfined_plugin processes execute with the nagios_uncon‐
14 fined_plugin_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
15 running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep nagios_unconfined_plugin_t
20
21
22
24 The nagios_unconfined_plugin_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the nagios_unconfined_plugin_t domain
28 are the following:
29
30 /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/.*
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 nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users to set‐
40 up their nagios_unconfined_plugin processes in as secure a method as
41 possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for nagios_unconfined_plugin:
44
45 nagios_unconfined_plugin_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a nagios_unconfined_plugin_t can be used to
48 make the process type nagios_unconfined_plugin_t permissive. SELinux
49 does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux
50 denials) messages are still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is extremely flexible and has several
56 booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run nagios_uncon‐
57 fined_plugin with the tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
62 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
63 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
64 ean. Enabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
71 space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on
72 the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
73
74 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
75
76
77
78 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the
79 secure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
80
81 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
82
83
84
85 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
86 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
87 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
88 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selin‐
89 uxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by default.
90
91 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1
92
93
94
95 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
96 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
97 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
98 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_exec‐
99 stack boolean. Disabled by default.
100
101 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1
102
103
104
106 The SELinux process type nagios_unconfined_plugin_t can manage files
107 labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the
108 default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need
109 to have DAC permissions.
110
111 file_type
112
113 all files on the system
114
115
117 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
118 type.
119
120 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
121
122 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
123 SELinux nagios_unconfined_plugin policy is very flexible allowing users
124 to setup their nagios_unconfined_plugin processes in as secure a method
125 as possible.
126
127 The following file types are defined for nagios_unconfined_plugin:
128
129
130
131 nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t
132
133 - Set files with the nagios_unconfined_plugin_exec_t type, if you want
134 to transition an executable to the nagios_unconfined_plugin_t domain.
135
136
137
138 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
139 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
140 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
141 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
142
143
145 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
146 mappings.
147
148 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
149 process type is permissive.
150
151 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
152 icy modules.
153
154 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
155
156
157 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
158 icy settings.
