6 shorewall_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the shorewall
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the shorewall processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The shorewall processes execute with the shorewall_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 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep shorewall_t
20
24 The shorewall_t SELinux type can be entered via the shorewall_exec_t,
25 shorewall_var_lib_t file types.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the shorewall_t domain are the follow‐
28 ing:
29 /sbin/shorewall6?, /usr/sbin/shorewall6?, /sbin/shorewall-lite,
31 /usr/sbin/shorewall-lite, /var/lib/shorewall(/.*)?, /var/lib/shore‐
32 wall6(/.*)?, /var/lib/shorewall-lite(/.*)?, /var/lib/shore‐
33 wall6-lite(/.*)?

36 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
37 system
38 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
40 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
42 shorewall policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their shore‐
43 wall processes in as secure a method as possible.
44 The following process types are defined for shorewall:
46 shorewall_t
48 Note: semanage permissive -a shorewall_t can be used to make the
50 process type shorewall_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
51 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
52 still generated.
53
56 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. shore‐
57 wall policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
58 you to manipulate the policy and run shorewall with the tightest access
59 possible.
60 If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched,
64 sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean.
65 Enabled by default.
66 setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1
68 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
72 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
73 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
75 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
79 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
80 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
82
86 The SELinux process type shorewall_t can manage files labeled with the
87 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
88 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

167 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
168 type.
169 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
171 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
173 SELinux shorewall policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
174 shorewall processes in as secure a method as possible.
175 EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES
177 shorewall policy stores data with multiple different file context types
180 under the /var/lib/shorewall directory. If you would like to store the
181 data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to cre‐
182 ate an equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the
183 /srv directory you would execute the following command:
184 semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/shorewall /srv/shorewall
186 restorecon -R -v /srv/shorewall
187 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
189 SELinux defines the file context types for the shorewall, if you wanted
191 to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to exe‐
192 cute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
193 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
194 semanage fcontext -a -t shorewall_exec_t '/srv/shorewall/content(/.*)?'
196 restorecon -R -v /srv/myshorewall_content
197 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
199 match multiple files.
200 The following file types are defined for shorewall:
202 shorewall_etc_t
206 - Set files with the shorewall_etc_t type, if you want to store shore‐
208 wall files in the /etc directories.
209 Paths:
212 /etc/shorewall(/.*)?, /etc/shorewall6(/.*)?, /etc/shorewall-
213 lite(/.*)?
214 shorewall_exec_t
217 - Set files with the shorewall_exec_t type, if you want to transition
219 an executable to the shorewall_t domain.
220 Paths:
223 /sbin/shorewall6?, /usr/sbin/shorewall6?, /sbin/shorewall-lite,
224 /usr/sbin/shorewall-lite
225 shorewall_initrc_exec_t
228 - Set files with the shorewall_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
230 sition an executable to the shorewall_initrc_t domain.
231 shorewall_lock_t
235 - Set files with the shorewall_lock_t type, if you want to treat the
237 files as shorewall lock data, stored under the /var/lock directory
238 shorewall_log_t
242 - Set files with the shorewall_log_t type, if you want to treat the
244 data as shorewall log data, usually stored under the /var/log direc‐
245 tory.
246 shorewall_tmp_t
250 - Set files with the shorewall_tmp_t type, if you want to store shore‐
252 wall temporary files in the /tmp directories.
253 shorewall_var_lib_t
257 - Set files with the shorewall_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the
259 shorewall files under the /var/lib directory.
260 Paths:
263 /var/lib/shorewall(/.*)?, /var/lib/shorewall6(/.*)?,
264 /var/lib/shorewall-lite(/.*)?, /var/lib/shorewall6-lite(/.*)?
265 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
268 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
269 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
270 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
271
274 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
275 mappings.
276 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
278 process type is permissive.
279 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
281 icy modules.
282 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
284 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
287 icy settings.
