6 firewalld_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the firewalld
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the firewalld processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The firewalld processes execute with the firewalld_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 firewalld_t
20
21
22
24 The firewalld_t SELinux type can be entered via the firewalld_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the firewalld_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29
30 /usr/sbin/firewalld
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 firewalld policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their fire‐
40 walld processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for firewalld:
43
44 firewalld_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a firewalld_t can be used to make the
47 process type firewalld_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 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. fire‐
54 walld policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
55 you to manipulate the policy and run firewalld with the tightest access
56 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 system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
68 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the se‐
75 cure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
78

82 The SELinux process type firewalld_t can manage files labeled with the
83 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
84 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

153 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
154 type.
155
156 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
157
158 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
159 SELinux firewalld policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
160 firewalld processes in as secure a method as possible.
161
162 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
163
164
165 firewalld policy stores data with multiple different file context types
166 under the /var/run/firewalld directory. If you would like to store the
167 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
168 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
169 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
170
171 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/run/firewalld /srv/firewalld
172 restorecon -R -v /srv/firewalld
173
174 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
175
176 SELinux defines the file context types for the firewalld, if you wanted
177 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
178 the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use re‐
179 storecon to put the labels on disk.
180
181 semanage fcontext -a -t firewalld_unit_file_t '/srv/myfirewalld_con‐
182 tent(/.*)?'
183 restorecon -R -v /srv/myfirewalld_content
184
185 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
186 match multiple files.
187
188 The following file types are defined for firewalld:
189
190
191
192 firewalld_etc_rw_t
193
194 - Set files with the firewalld_etc_rw_t type, if you want to treat the
195 files as firewalld etc read/write content.
196
197
198
199 firewalld_exec_t
200
201 - Set files with the firewalld_exec_t type, if you want to transition
202 an executable to the firewalld_t domain.
203
204
205
206 firewalld_initrc_exec_t
207
208 - Set files with the firewalld_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
209 sition an executable to the firewalld_initrc_t domain.
210
211
212
213 firewalld_tmp_t
214
215 - Set files with the firewalld_tmp_t type, if you want to store fire‐
216 walld temporary files in the /tmp directories.
217
218
219
220 firewalld_tmpfs_t
221
222 - Set files with the firewalld_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store fire‐
223 walld files on a tmpfs file system.
224
225
226
227 firewalld_unit_file_t
228
229 - Set files with the firewalld_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
230 the files as firewalld unit content.
231
232
233
234 firewalld_var_log_t
235
236 - Set files with the firewalld_var_log_t type, if you want to treat the
237 data as firewalld var log data, usually stored under the /var/log di‐
238 rectory.
239
240
241
242 firewalld_var_run_t
243
244 - Set files with the firewalld_var_run_t type, if you want to store the
245 firewalld files under the /run or /var/run directory.
246
247
248 Paths:
249 /var/run/firewalld(/.*)?, /var/run/firewalld.pid
250
251
252 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
253 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
254 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
255 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
256
257
259 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
260 mappings.
261
262 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
263 process type is permissive.
264
265 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
266 icy modules.
267
268 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
269
270
271 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
272 icy settings.
