NAME

cluster_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cluster processes

DESCRIPTION

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cluster processes via flexible mandatory access control.

The cluster processes execute with the cluster_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.

For example:

ps -eZ | grep cluster_t

ENTRYPOINTS

The cluster_t SELinux type can be entered via the cluster_exec_t file type.

The default entrypoint paths for the cluster_t domain are the following:

/usr/bin/pcsd, /usr/bin/aisexec, /usr/bin/ccs_tool, /usr/bin/corosync, /usr/bin/cpglockd, /usr/bin/cman_tool, /usr/bin/rgmanager, /usr/lib/pcsd/pcsd, /usr/bin/ldirectord, /usr/bin/pacemakerd, /usr/bin/corosync-qnetd, /usr/bin/corosync-cfgtool, /usr/bin/corosync-notifyd, /usr/bin/corosync-qdevice, /usr/bin/pacemaker-remoted, /usr/bin/pacemaker_remoted, /usr/lib/pcs/pcs_snmp_agent, /usr/lib/heartbeat/heartbeat, /usr/share/corosync/corosync, /usr/share/corosync/corosync-qdevice

PROCESS TYPES

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system

You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps

Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux cluster policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cluster processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following process types are defined for cluster:

cluster_t

Note: semanage permissive -a cluster_t can be used to make the process type cluster_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated.

BOOLEANS

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. cluster policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run cluster with the tightest access possible.

If you want to allow cluster administrative domains to connect to the network using TCP, you must turn on the cluster_can_network_connect boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P cluster_can_network_connect 1

If you want to allow cluster administrative domains to manage all files on a system, you must turn on the cluster_manage_all_files boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P cluster_manage_all_files 1

If you want to allow cluster administrative cluster domains memcheck-amd64- to use executable memory, you must turn on the cluster_use_execmem boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P cluster_use_execmem 1

If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

If you want to dontaudit all daemons scheduling requests (setsched, sys_nice), you must turn on the daemons_dontaudit_scheduling boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P daemons_dontaudit_scheduling 1

If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P deny_execmem 1

If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P fips_mode 1

If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1

If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P nis_enabled 1

If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory, you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Enabled by default.

setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1

If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the secure_mode_insmod boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1

If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_execheap boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1

If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack executable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_execstack boolean. Disabled by default.

setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1

NSSWITCH DOMAIN

If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from ldap rather then using a sssd server for the cluster_t, you must turn on the authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean.

setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos for the cluster_t, you must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean.

setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1

PORT TYPES

SELinux defines port types to represent TCP and UDP ports.

You can see the types associated with a port by using the following command:

semanage port -l

Policy governs the access confined processes have to these ports. SELinux cluster policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their cluster processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following port types are defined for cluster:





Default Defined Ports: tcp 5149,40040,50006-50008 udp
    5149,50006-50008






MANAGED FILES


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


file_type


	all files on the system








FILE CONTEXTS


SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the
    file type.


You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to
    ls


Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
    SELinux cluster policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
    cluster processes in as secure a method as possible.


EQUIVALENCE DIRECTORIES




cluster policy stores data with multiple different file context
    types under the /var/log/pacemaker directory. If you would like to store the
    data in a different directory you can use the semanage command to create an
    equivalence mapping. If you wanted to store this data under the /srv
    directory you would execute the following command:


semanage fcontext -a -e /var/log/pacemaker /srv/pacemaker
  

  restorecon -R -v /srv/pacemaker


STANDARD FILE CONTEXT


SELinux defines the file context types for the cluster, if you
    wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to
    execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then use
    restorecon to put the labels on disk.


semanage fcontext -a -t cluster_conf_t
    '/srv/cluster/content(/.*)?'
  

  restorecon -R -v /srv/mycluster_content


Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels
    that match multiple files.


The following file types are defined for cluster:

- Set files with the cluster_conf_t type, if you want to treat the
    files as cluster configuration data, usually stored under the /etc
    directory.

    transition an executable to the cluster_t domain.

Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon
    command. If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use
    the semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling
    database. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.








COMMANDS


semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default
    file context mappings.


semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether
    or not a process type is permissive.


semanage module can also be used to
    enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.


semanage port can also be used to manipulate the port
    definitions


semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the
    booleans




system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize
    SELinux policy settings.
