racoon_selinux(8) racoon SELinux Policy documentation racoon_selinux(8)NAMEracoon_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the racoon pro‐
cesses
DESCRIPTION
Security-Enhanced Linux secures the racoon processes via flexible
mandatory access control.
BOOLEANS
SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. racoon
policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
manipulate the policy and run racoon with the tightest access possible.
If you want to allow racoon to read shado, you must turn on the
racoon_read_shadow boolean.
setsebool -P racoon_read_shadow 1
NSSWITCH DOMAIN
If you want to allow users to login using a sssd serve for the
racoon_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
racoon_t, you must turn on the allow_kerberos boolean.
setsebool -P allow_kerberos 1
If you want to allow system to run with NI for the racoon_t, you must
turn on the allow_ypbind boolean.
setsebool -P allow_ypbind 1
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 racoon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
racoon processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following file types are defined for racoon:
racoon_exec_t
- Set files with the racoon_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
executable to the racoon_t domain.
racoon_tmp_t
- Set files with the racoon_tmp_t type, if you want to store racoon
temporary files in the /tmp directories.
Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
If you want to permanantly change the file context you need to use the
semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
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
racoon policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their racoon
processes in as secure a method as possible.
The following process types are defined for racoon:
racoon_t
Note: semanage permissive -a PROCESS_TYPE can be used to make a process
type permissive. Permissive process types are not denied access by
SELinux. AVC messages will still be generated.
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 pol‐
icy modules.
semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
icy settings.
