6 ipsec_mgmt_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the ipsec_mgmt
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the ipsec_mgmt processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The ipsec_mgmt processes execute with the ipsec_mgmt_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep ipsec_mgmt_t
20
24 The ipsec_mgmt_t SELinux type can be entered via the ipsec_mgmt_exec_t,
25 shell_exec_t file types.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the ipsec_mgmt_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /usr/sbin/ipsec, /usr/sbin/swanctl, /usr/sbin/strongimcv,
31 /usr/sbin/strongswan, /usr/lib/ipsec/_plutorun, /usr/lib/ipsec/_plu‐
32 toload, /usr/libexec/ipsec/_plutorun, /usr/libexec/ipsec/_plutoload,

45 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
46 system
47 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
49 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
51 ipsec_mgmt policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
52 ipsec_mgmt processes in as secure a method as possible.
53 The following process types are defined for ipsec_mgmt:
55 ipsec_mgmt_t
57 Note: semanage permissive -a ipsec_mgmt_t can be used to make the
59 process type ipsec_mgmt_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
60 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
61 still generated.
62
65 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
66 ipsec_mgmt policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
67 allow you to manipulate the policy and run ipsec_mgmt with the tightest
68 access possible.
69 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
73 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
74 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
76
80 The SELinux process type ipsec_mgmt_t can manage files labeled with the
81 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
82 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

146 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
147 type.
148 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
150 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
152 SELinux ipsec_mgmt policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
153 their ipsec_mgmt processes in as secure a method as possible.
154 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
156 SELinux defines the file context types for the ipsec_mgmt, if you
158 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
159 execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
160 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
161 semanage fcontext -a -t ipsec_mgmt_devpts_t '/srv/myipsec_mgmt_con‐
163 tent(/.*)?'
164 restorecon -R -v /srv/myipsec_mgmt_content
165 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
167 match multiple files.
168 The following file types are defined for ipsec_mgmt:
170 ipsec_mgmt_devpts_t
174 - Set files with the ipsec_mgmt_devpts_t type, if you want to treat the
176 files as ipsec mgmt devpts data.
177 ipsec_mgmt_exec_t
181 - Set files with the ipsec_mgmt_exec_t type, if you want to transition
183 an executable to the ipsec_mgmt_t domain.
184 Paths:
187 /usr/sbin/ipsec, /usr/sbin/swanctl, /usr/sbin/strongimcv,
188 /usr/sbin/strongswan, /usr/lib/ipsec/_plutorun,
189 /usr/lib/ipsec/_plutoload, /usr/libexec/ipsec/_plutorun,
190 /usr/libexec/ipsec/_plutoload, /usr/libexec/nm-openswan-service,
191 /usr/libexec/nm-libreswan-service
192 ipsec_mgmt_lock_t
195 - Set files with the ipsec_mgmt_lock_t type, if you want to treat the
197 files as ipsec mgmt lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
198 Paths:
201 /var/lock/subsys/ipsec, /var/lock/subsys/strongswan
202 ipsec_mgmt_unit_file_t
205 - Set files with the ipsec_mgmt_unit_file_t type, if you want to treat
207 the files as ipsec mgmt unit content.
208 Paths:
211 /usr/lib/systemd/system/ipsec.*, /usr/lib/systemd/sys‐
212 tem/strongimcv.*, /usr/lib/systemd/system/strongswan.*,
213 /usr/lib/systemd/system/strongswan-swanctl.*
214 ipsec_mgmt_var_run_t
217 - Set files with the ipsec_mgmt_var_run_t type, if you want to store
219 the ipsec mgmt files under the /run or /var/run directory.
220 Paths:
223 /var/run/pluto/ipsec.info, /var/run/pluto/ipsec_setup.pid
224 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
227 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
228 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
229 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
230
233 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
234 mappings.
235 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
237 process type is permissive.
238 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
240 icy modules.
241 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
243 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
246 icy settings.
