💅 qpidd_selinux(8) — the SELinux tea on qpidd 🫖

okay bestie, so this is the qpidd_selinux(8) page from the SELinux Policy qpidd collection, and we're gonna get into it ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

qpidd_selinux — the Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the qpidd processes, periodt 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Security-Enhanced Linux secures the qpidd processes via flexible mandatory access control. Like, it's the bouncer at the club and it actually checks the list 🔥

The qpidd processes execute with the qpidd_t SELinux type. Wanna check if you've got these processes running? Just run the ps command with the -Z qualifier. iykyk 👑

For example:

ps -eZ | grep qpidd_t

🚪 ENTRYPOINTS 🚪

The qpidd_t SELinux type can be entered via the qpidd_exec_t file type. That's the door, babe 🚪✨

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

/usr/bin/qpidd

👑 PROCESS TYPES 👑

SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the system. Very main character energy of it, honestly.

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

Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. The SELinux qpidd policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their qpidd processes in as secure a method as possible. Flexible and secure, we love a multitasker 💖

The following process types are defined for qpidd:

  • qpidd_t
Note: semanage permissive -a qpidd_t can be used to make the process type qpidd_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still generated. So it's not a full hall pass, it just stops the blocking — the receipts still get printed 😭

🎀 BOOLEANS 🎀

SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. The qpidd policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run qpidd with the tightest access possible. Tightest access = bestie behavior 💅

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 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 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

📁 MANAGED FILES 📁

The SELinux process type qpidd_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. Yeah, SELinux isn't gonna override your regular permissions, sorry babe 🙈

  • cluster_conf_t
/etc/cluster(/.*)?
  • cluster_var_lib_t
/var/lib/pcsd(/.*)?
/var/lib/cluster(/.*)?
/var/lib/openais(/.*)?
/var/lib/pengine(/.*)?
/var/lib/corosync(/.*)?
/usr/lib/heartbeat(/.*)?
/var/lib/heartbeat(/.*)?
/var/lib/pacemaker(/.*)?
  • cluster_var_run_t

  • qpidd_tmp_t — no default paths listed for this one, it's mysterious like that 🧚
  • qpidd_tmpfs_t — also no default paths listed 🦋

🗂️ FILE CONTEXTS 🗂️

SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file type. Fancy little name tag for every file, obsessed 💖

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

Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. The SELinux qpidd policy is very flexible, allowing users to setup their qpidd processes in as secure a method as possible. We said it before and we'll say it again, consistency queen 👑

🌈 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT 🌈

SELinux defines the file context types for the qpidd. 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. Two-step process, but it slaps 🎀

semanage fcontext -a -t qpidd_exec_t '/srv/qpidd/content(/.*)?'
restorecon -R -v /srv/myqpidd_content
Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that match multiple files. Regex girlies rise 🌸

The following file types are defined for qpidd:

  • qpidd_exec_t — Set files with the qpidd_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the qpidd_t domain.
  • qpidd_initrc_exec_t — Set files with the qpidd_initrc_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the qpidd_initrc_t domain.
  • qpidd_tmp_t — Set files with the qpidd_tmp_t type, if you want to store qpidd temporary files in the /tmp directories.
  • qpidd_tmpfs_t — Set files with the qpidd_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store qpidd files on a tmpfs file system.
  • qpidd_var_lib_t — Set files with the qpidd_var_lib_t type, if you want to store the qpidd files under the /var/lib directory.
  • qpidd_var_run_t — Set files with the qpidd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the qpidd files under the /run or /var/run directory.

Paths:

/run/qpidd(/.*)?, /run/qpidd.pid
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. Temporary vs permanent, choose your fighter 😭 chcon is a quick lil touch-up, semanage fcontext is the full glow-up.

🛠️ 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 boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans. 🔘

system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings. GUI bestie for when you don't feel like typing, we respect it 💅
