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 shell_exec_t,
25 ipsec_mgmt_exec_t file types.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the ipsec_mgmt_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /bin/d?ash, /bin/ksh.*, /bin/zsh.*, /usr/bin/d?ash, /usr/bin/ksh.*,
31 /usr/bin/zsh.*, /bin/esh, /bin/bash, /bin/fish, /bin/mksh, /bin/sash,
32 /bin/tcsh, /bin/yash, /bin/bash2, /usr/bin/esh, /sbin/nologin,
33 /usr/bin/bash, /usr/bin/fish, /usr/bin/mksh, /usr/bin/sash,

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 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
80 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
81 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
83
87 The SELinux process type ipsec_mgmt_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.

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