NAME

httpd_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the httpd processes

DESCRIPTION

SELinux Linux secures httpd (Apache web server) processes via flexible mandatory access control.

BOOLEANS

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

If you want to allow httpd to act as a rela, you must turn on the httpd_can_network_relay boolean.

setsebool -P httpd_can_network_relay 1

If you want to allow Apache to communicate with avahi service via dbu, you must turn on the httpd_dbus_avahi boolean.

setsebool -P httpd_dbus_avahi 1

If you want to unify HTTPD handling of all content files, you must turn on the httpd_unified boolean.

setsebool -P httpd_unified 1

If you want to allow HTTPD scripts and modules to connect to the network using TCP, you must turn on the httpd_can_network_connect boolean.

setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect 1

If you want to allow httpd scripts and modules execmem/execstac, you must turn on the httpd_execmem boolean.

setsebool -P httpd_execmem 1

If you want to allow Apache to use mod_auth_ntlm_winbin, you must turn on the allow_httpd_mod_auth_ntlm_winbind boolean.

setsebool -P allow_httpd_mod_auth_ntlm_winbind 1

If you want to unify HTTPD to communicate with the terminal. Needed for entering the passphrase for certificates at the terminal, you must turn on the httpd_tty_comm boolean.

SHARING FILES

If you want to share files with multiple domains (Apache, FTP, rsync, Samba), you can set a file context of public_content_t and public_content_rw_t. These context allow any of the above domains to read the content. If you want a particular domain to write to the public_content_rw_t domain, you must set the appropriate boolean.

Allow httpd servers to read the /var/httpd directory by adding the public_content_t file type to the directory and by restoring the file type.

semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_t "/var/httpd(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/httpd

Allow httpd servers to read and write /var/tmp/incoming by adding the public_content_rw_t type to the directory and by restoring the file type. This also requires the allow_httpd_anon_write boolean to be set.

semanage fcontext -a -t public_content_rw_t "/var/httpd/incoming(/.*)?"
restorecon -F -R -v /var/httpd/incoming

If you want to allow apache scripts to write to public content. Directories/Files must be labeled public_rw_content_t., you must turn on the allow_httpd_sys_script_anon_write boolean.

setsebool -P allow_httpd_sys_script_anon_write 1

If you want to allow Apache to modify public files used for public file transfer services. Directories/Files must be labeled public_rw_content_t., you must turn on the allow_httpd_anon_write boolean.

setsebool -P allow_httpd_anon_write 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 lsP Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files. SELinux httpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their httpd processes in as secure a method as possible.

httpd_var_run_t

- Set files with the httpd_var_run_t type, if you want to store the httpd files under the /run directory.

Paths:: /var/run/mod_.*, /var/run/apache.*, /var/run/lighttpd(/.*)?, /var/run/gcache_port, /var/run/httpd.*, /var/run/wsgi.*, /var/lib/php/session(/.*)?

httpd_w3c_validator_content_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_content_t type, if you want to treat the files as httpd w3c validator content.

httpd_w3c_validator_htaccess_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_htaccess_t type, if you want to treat the file as a httpd w3c validator access file.

httpd_w3c_validator_ra_content_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_ra_content_t type, if you want to treat the files as httpd w3c validator read/append content.

httpd_w3c_validator_rw_content_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_rw_content_t type, if you want to treat the files as httpd w3c validator read/write content.

httpd_w3c_validator_script_exec_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_script_exec_t type, if you want to transition an executable to the httpd_w3c_validator_script_t domain.

Paths:: /usr/share/w3c-markup-validator/cgi-bin(/.*)?, /usr/lib/cgi-bin/check

httpd_w3c_validator_tmp_t

- Set files with the httpd_w3c_validator_tmp_t type, if you want to store httpd w3c validator temporary files in the /tmp directories.

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.

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 httpd policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their httpd processes in as secure a method as possible.

The following port types are defined for httpd:

http_cache_port_t

Default Defined Ports: tcp 8021

http_port_t

Default Defined Ports: tcp 8021

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

The following process types are defined for httpd:

httpd_cvs_script_t, httpd_rotatelogs_t, httpd_bugzilla_script_t, httpd_smokeping_cgi_script_t, httpd_nagios_script_t, httpd_dirsrvadmin_script_t, httpd_suexec_t, httpd_php_t, httpd_w3c_validator_script_t, httpd_user_script_t, httpd_awstats_script_t, httpd_apcupsd_cgi_script_t, httpd_nutups_cgi_script_t, httpd_munin_script_t, httpd_sys_script_t, httpd_prewikka_script_t, httpd_git_script_t, httpd_unconfined_script_t, httpd_t, httpd_helper_t, httpd_squid_script_t, httpd_cobbler_script_t, httpd_mediawiki_script_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 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.
