6 collectd_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the col‐
7 lectd_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the collectd_script processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The collectd_script processes execute with the collectd_script_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep collectd_script_t
20
21
22
24 The collectd_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the col‐
25 lectd_script_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the collectd_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/share/collectd/collection3/bin/.*.cgi
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 collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for collectd_script:
43
44 collectd_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a collectd_script_t can be used to make the
47 process type collectd_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
48 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. col‐
54 lectd_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run collectd_script with the
56 tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the httpd_en‐
68 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
71
72
73
75 The SELinux process type collectd_script_t can manage files labeled
76 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
77 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
78 permissions.
79
80 collectd_rw_content_t
81
82
83 collectd_script_tmp_t
84
85
86
88 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
89 type.
90
91 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
92
93 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
94 SELinux collectd_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
95 their collectd_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
96
97 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
98
99 SELinux defines the file context types for the collectd_script, if you
100 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
101 execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
102 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
103
104 semanage fcontext -a -t collectd_script_tmp_t '/srv/mycol‐
105 lectd_script_content(/.*)?'
106 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycollectd_script_content
107
108 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
109 match multiple files.
110
111 The following file types are defined for collectd_script:
112
113
114
115 collectd_script_exec_t
116
117 - Set files with the collectd_script_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
118 sition an executable to the collectd_script_t domain.
119
120
121
122 collectd_script_tmp_t
123
124 - Set files with the collectd_script_tmp_t type, if you want to store
125 collectd script temporary files in the /tmp directories.
126
127
128
129 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
130 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
131 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
132 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
133
134
136 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
137 mappings.
138
139 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
140 process type is permissive.
141
142 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
143 icy modules.
144
145 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
146
147
148 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
149 icy settings.
