NAME

6       nagios_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux Policy for the nagios pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux  secures  the  nagios  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  nagios  processes  execute with the nagios_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 nagios_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  nagios_t  SELinux  type  can be entered via the nagios_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the nagios_t domain are the following:
28
29       /usr/bin/icinga, /usr/bin/nagios, /usr/sbin/icinga, /usr/sbin/nagios
30

PROCESS TYPES

32       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33       system
34
35       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37       Policy  governs  the  access confined processes have to files.  SELinux
38       nagios policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their  nagios
39       processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41       The following process types are defined for nagios:
42
43       nagios_t, nagios_admin_plugin_t, nagios_checkdisk_plugin_t, nagios_mail_plugin_t, nagios_services_plugin_t, nagios_system_plugin_t, nagios_unconfined_plugin_t, nagios_eventhandler_plugin_t, nagios_openshift_plugin_t, nagios_script_t
44
45       Note:  semanage  permissive -a nagios_t can be used to make the process
46       type nagios_t permissive. SELinux does not deny  access  to  permissive
47       process  types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48       ated.
49
50

BOOLEANS

52       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.   nagios
53       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54       manipulate the policy and run nagios with the tightest access possible.
55
56
57
58       If you want to allow nagios run in  conjunction  with  PNP4Nagios,  you
59       must turn on the nagios_run_pnp4nagios boolean. Disabled by default.
60
61       setsebool -P nagios_run_pnp4nagios 1
62
63
64
65       If  you want to allow nagios/nrpe to call sudo from NRPE utils scripts,
66       you must turn on the nagios_run_sudo boolean. Disabled by default.
67
68       setsebool -P nagios_run_sudo 1
69
70
71
72       If you want to determine whether Nagios, NRPE can access nfs file  sys‐
73       tems, you must turn on the nagios_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
74
75       setsebool -P nagios_use_nfs 1
76
77
78
79       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
80       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
81
82       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
83
84
85

MANAGED FILES

87       The SELinux process type nagios_t can manage  files  labeled  with  the
88       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
89       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

194       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
195       type.
196
197       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
198
199       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
200       SELinux nagios policy is very flexible allowing users  to  setup  their
201       nagios processes in as secure a method as possible.
202
203       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
204
205       SELinux defines the file context types for the nagios, if you wanted to
206       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
207       the  semanage  command  to sepecify alternate labeling and then use re‐
208       storecon to put the labels on disk.
209
210       semanage  fcontext  -a   -t   nagios_ra_content_t   '/srv/mynagios_con‐
211       tent(/.*)?'
212       restorecon -R -v /srv/mynagios_content
213
214       Note:  SELinux  often  uses  regular expressions to specify labels that
215       match multiple files.
216
217       The following file types are defined for nagios:
