6 l2tpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the l2tpd processes
7
9 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the l2tpd processes via flexible manda‐
10 tory access control.
11
12 The l2tpd processes execute with the l2tpd_t SELinux type. You can
13 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
14 with the -Z qualifier.
15
16 For example:
17
18 ps -eZ | grep l2tpd_t
19
20
21
23 The l2tpd_t SELinux type can be entered via the l2tpd_exec_t file type.
24
25 The default entrypoint paths for the l2tpd_t domain are the following:
26
27 /usr/sbin/.*l2tpd, /usr/libexec/nm-l2tp-service
28
30 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
31 system
32
33 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
34
35 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
36 l2tpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their l2tpd pro‐
37 cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39 The following process types are defined for l2tpd:
40
41 l2tpd_t
42
43 Note: semanage permissive -a l2tpd_t can be used to make the process
44 type l2tpd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
45 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
46 ated.
47
48
50 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. l2tpd
51 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52 manipulate the policy and run l2tpd with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
57 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
58
59 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
60
61
62
63 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
64 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
67
68
69
71 SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
72
73 You can see the types associated with a port by using the following
74 command:
75
76 semanage port -l
77
78
79 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports.
80 SELinux l2tpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
81 l2tpd processes in as secure a method as possible.
82
83 The following port types are defined for l2tpd:
84
85
86 l2tp_port_t
87
88
89
90 Default Defined Ports:
91 tcp 1701
92 udp 1701
93
95 The SELinux process type l2tpd_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
96 lowing file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
97 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

172 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
173 type.
174
175 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
176
177 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
178 SELinux l2tpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
179 l2tpd processes in as secure a method as possible.
180
181 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
182
183
184 l2tpd policy stores data with multiple different file context types
185 under the /var/run/.*l2tpd directory. If you would like to store the
186 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
187 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
188 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
189
190 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/.*l2tpd /srv/.*l2tpd
191 restorecon -R -v /srv/.*l2tpd
192
193 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
194
195 SELinux defines the file context types for the l2tpd, if you wanted to
196 store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
197 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
198 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
199
200 semanage fcontext -a -t l2tpd_var_run_t '/srv/myl2tpd_content(/.*)?'
201 restorecon -R -v /srv/myl2tpd_content
202
203 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
204 match multiple files.
205
206 The following file types are defined for l2tpd:
207
208
209
210 l2tpd_exec_t
211
212 - Set files with the l2tpd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
213 executable to the l2tpd_t domain.
214
215
216 Paths:
217 /usr/sbin/.*l2tpd, /usr/libexec/nm-l2tp-service
218
219
220 l2tpd_initrc_exec_t
221
222 - Set files with the l2tpd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
223 tion an executable to the l2tpd_initrc_t domain.
224
225
226
227 l2tpd_tmp_t
228
229 - Set files with the l2tpd_tmp_t type, if you want to store l2tpd tem‐
230 porary files in the /tmp directories.
231
232
233
234 l2tpd_var_run_t
235
236 - Set files with the l2tpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
237 l2tpd files under the /run or /var/run directory.
238
239
240 Paths:
241 /var/run/*.xl2tpd.*, /var/run/.*l2tpd.pid, /var/run/.*l2tpd(/.*)?,
242 /var/run/prol2tpd.ctl
243
244
245 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
246 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
247 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
248 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
249
250
252 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
253 mappings.
254
255 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
256 process type is permissive.
257
258 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
259 icy modules.
260
261 semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
262
263 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
264
265
266 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
267 icy settings.
