6 nagios_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the na‐
7 gios_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the nagios_script processes via flexi‐
11 ble mandatory access control.
12
13 The nagios_script processes execute with the nagios_script_t SELinux
14 type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing
15 the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep nagios_script_t
20
21
22
24 The nagios_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the na‐
25 gios_script_exec_t file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the nagios_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/lib/icinga/cgi(/.*)?, /usr/lib/nagios/cgi(/.*)?, /usr/lib/cgi-
31 bin/nagios(/.+)?, /usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin(/.*)?, /usr/lib/cgi-bin/net‐
32 saint(/.*)?
33
35 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36 system
37
38 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
41 nagios_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their na‐
42 gios_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44 The following process types are defined for nagios_script:
45
46 nagios_script_t
47
48 Note: semanage permissive -a nagios_script_t can be used to make the
49 process type nagios_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
50 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51 still generated.
52
53
55 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. na‐
56 gios_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
57 allow you to manipulate the policy and run nagios_script with the
58 tightest access possible.
59
60
61
62 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
63 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
64
65 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
66
67
68
69 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the httpd_en‐
70 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
71
72 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
73
74
75
76 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
77 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
78
79 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
80
81
82
84 The SELinux process type nagios_script_t can manage files labeled with
85 the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for
86 these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
87 missions.
88
89 nagios_rw_content_t
90
91
92
94 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
95 type.
96
97 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
98
99 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
100 SELinux nagios_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
101 their nagios_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
102
103 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
104
105 SELinux defines the file context types for the nagios_script, if you
106 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
107 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
108 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
109
110 semanage fcontext -a -t nagios_script_exec_t '/srv/nagios_script/con‐
111 tent(/.*)?'
112 restorecon -R -v /srv/mynagios_script_content
113
114 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
115 match multiple files.
116
117 The following file types are defined for nagios_script:
118
119
120
121 nagios_script_exec_t
122
123 - Set files with the nagios_script_exec_t type, if you want to transi‐
124 tion an executable to the nagios_script_t domain.
125
126
127 Paths:
128 /usr/lib/icinga/cgi(/.*)?, /usr/lib/nagios/cgi(/.*)?,
129 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/nagios(/.+)?, /usr/lib/nagios/cgi-bin(/.*)?,
130 /usr/lib/cgi-bin/netsaint(/.*)?
131
132
133 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
134 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
135 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
136 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
137
138
140 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
141 mappings.
142
143 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
144 process type is permissive.
145
146 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
147 icy modules.
148
149 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
150
151
152 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
153 icy settings.
