NAME

6       redis_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the redis processes
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the redis processes via flexible manda‐
10       tory access control.
11
12       The redis processes execute with the  redis_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 redis_t
19
20
21

ENTRYPOINTS

23       The redis_t SELinux type can be entered via the redis_exec_t file type.
24
25       The default entrypoint paths for the redis_t domain are the following:
26
27       /var/opt/rh/rh-redis32/redis(/.*)?, /usr/bin/redis-server
28

PROCESS TYPES

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       redis policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their redis  pro‐
37       cesses in as secure a method as possible.
38
39       The following process types are defined for redis:
40
41       redis_t
42
43       Note:  semanage  permissive  -a redis_t can be used to make the process
44       type redis_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

BOOLEANS

50       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access  required.   redis
51       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
52       manipulate the policy and run redis with the tightest access possible.
53
54
55
56       If you want to allow Redis to run redis-sentinal notification  scripts,
57       you must turn on the redis_enable_notify boolean. Disabled by default.
58
59       setsebool -P redis_enable_notify 1
60
61
62
63       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
64       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
65
66       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
67
68
69
70       If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd  shared  memory,
71       you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.
72
73       setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
74
75
76

PORT TYPES

78       SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.
79
80       You  can  see  the  types associated with a port by using the following
81       command:
82
83       semanage port -l
84
85
86       Policy governs the access  confined  processes  have  to  these  ports.
87       SELinux redis policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their re‐
88       dis processes in as secure a method as possible.
89
90       The following port types are defined for redis:
91
92
93       redis_port_t
94
95
96
97       Default Defined Ports:
98                 tcp 6379,16379,26379
99

MANAGED FILES

101       The SELinux process type redis_t can manage files labeled with the fol‐
102       lowing  file  types.   The paths listed are the default paths for these
103       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

FILE CONTEXTS

171       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
172       type.
173
174       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
175
176       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
177       SELinux redis policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their re‐
178       dis processes in as secure a method as possible.
179
180       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
181
182       SELinux  defines the file context types for the redis, if you wanted to
183       store files with these types in a diffent paths, you  need  to  execute
184       the  semanage  command  to sepecify alternate labeling and then use re‐
185       storecon to put the labels on disk.
186
187       semanage fcontext -a -t redis_unit_file_t '/srv/myredis_content(/.*)?'
188       restorecon -R -v /srv/myredis_content
189
190       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
191       match multiple files.
192
193       The following file types are defined for redis:
194
195
196
197       redis_conf_t
198
199       -  Set files with the redis_conf_t type, if you want to treat the files
200       as redis configuration data, usually stored under the /etc directory.
201
202
203       Paths:
204            /etc/redis(/.*)?, /etc/redis-sentinel.*
205
206
207       redis_exec_t
208
209       - Set files with the redis_exec_t type, if you want  to  transition  an
210       executable to the redis_t domain.
211
212
213       Paths:
214            /var/opt/rh/rh-redis32/redis(/.*)?, /usr/bin/redis-server
215
216
217       redis_initrc_exec_t
218
219       -  Set  files with the redis_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
220       tion an executable to the redis_initrc_t domain.
221
222
223
224       redis_log_t
225
226       - Set files with the redis_log_t type, if you want to treat the data as
227       redis log data, usually stored under the /var/log directory.
228
229
230
231       redis_tmp_t
232
233       -  Set files with the redis_tmp_t type, if you want to store redis tem‐
234       porary files in the /tmp directories.
235
236
237
238       redis_unit_file_t
239
240       - Set files with the redis_unit_file_t type, if you want to  treat  the
241       files as redis unit content.
242
243
244
245       redis_var_lib_t
246
247       - Set files with the redis_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the re‐
248       dis files under the /var/lib directory.
249
250
251
252       redis_var_run_t
253
254       - Set files with the redis_var_run_t type, if you want to store the re‐
255       dis files under the /run or /var/run directory.
256
257
258
259       Note:  File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
260       If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use  the
261       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
262       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
263
264

COMMANDS

266       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
267       mappings.
268
269       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
270       process type is permissive.
271
272       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
273       icy modules.
274
275       semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port definitions
276
277       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
278
279
280       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
281       icy settings.
