6 openshift_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the openshift
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the openshift processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The openshift processes execute with the openshift_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep openshift_t
20
21
22
24 The openshift_t SELinux type can be entered via the crontab_exec_t,
25 user_cron_spool_t file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the openshift_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/bin/(f)?crontab, /usr/bin/at, /usr/sbin/fcronsighup,
31 /usr/libexec/fcronsighup, /var/spool/at(/.*)?, /var/spool/cron,
32 /var/spool/cron/[^/]+
33
35 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36 system
37
38 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
41 openshift policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their open‐
42 shift processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44 The following process types are defined for openshift:
45
46 openshift_initrc_t, openshift_cgroup_read_t, openshift_net_read_t, openshift_cron_t, openshift_t, openshift_app_t, openshift_script_t
47
48 Note: semanage permissive -a openshift_t can be used to make the
49 process type openshift_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
50 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51 still generated.
52
53
55 The SELinux process type openshift_t is an MCS (Multi Category Secu‐
56 rity) constrained type. Sometimes this separation is referred to as
57 sVirt. These types are usually used for securing multi-tenant environ‐
58 ments, such as virtualization, containers or separation of users. The
59 tools used to launch MCS types, pick out a different MCS label for each
60 process group.
61
62 For example one process might be launched with openshift_t:s0:c1,c2,
63 and another process launched with openshift_t:s0:c3,c4. The SELinux
64 kernel only allows these processes can only write to content with a
65 matching MCS label, or a MCS Label of s0. A process running with the
66 MCS level of s0:c1,c2 is not allowed to write to content with the MCS
67 label of s0:c3,c4
68
69
71 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. open‐
72 shift policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
73 you to manipulate the policy and run openshift with the tightest access
74 possible.
75
76
77
78 If you want to determine whether crond can execute jobs in the user
79 domain as opposed to the the generic cronjob domain, you must turn on
80 the cron_userdomain_transition boolean. Enabled by default.
81
82 setsebool -P cron_userdomain_transition 1
83
84
85
86 If you want to deny any process from ptracing or debugging any other
87 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
88 default.
89
90 setsebool -P deny_ptrace 1
91
92
93
95 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
96
97 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
98 command:
99
100 semanage port -l
101
102
103 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
104 SELinux openshift policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
105 openshift processes in as secure a method as possible.
106
107 The following port types are defined for openshift:
108
109
110 openshift_port_t
111
112
113
114 MANAGED FILES
115
116 The SELinux process type openshift_t can manage files labeled
117 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default
118 paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need
119 to have DAC permissions.

168 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
169 type.
170
171 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
172
173 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
174 SELinux openshift policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
175 openshift processes in as secure a method as possible.
176
177 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
178
179
180 openshift policy stores data with multiple different file context types
181 under the /var/lib/openshift directory. If you would like to store the
182 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
183 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
184 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
185
186 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/openshift /srv/openshift
187 restorecon -R -v /srv/openshift
188
189 openshift policy stores data with multiple different file context types
190 under the /var/lib/stickshift directory. If you would like to store
191 the data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to
192 create an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under
193 the /srv directory you would execute the following command:
194
195 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/stickshift /srv/stickshift
196 restorecon -R -v /srv/stickshift
197
198 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
199
200 SELinux defines the file context types for the openshift, if you wanted
201 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
202 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
203 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
204
205 semanage fcontext -a -t openshift_ra_content_t '/srv/myopenshift_con‐
206 tent(/.*)?'
207 restorecon -R -v /srv/myopenshift_content
208
209 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
210 match multiple files.
