ansible-selinux

A role to add custom selinux policies from .te files.

Motivation: https://people.centos.org/arrfab/Events/Loadays-2014/managing%20selinux%20with%20your%20cfgmgmt%20solution.pdf

Requirements

Centos 7 or 8.

Ansibles selinux module is dependent on libselinux-python and is installed for Centos 7 and 8.

Role Variables

• custom_selinux_dir: /etc/selinux_custom -- directory to store policy files
• policy_files: [] -- list of policy files to apply, without .te extension
• enforce_selinux: true -- enforce selinux

Example Playbook

Add .te files to files/ directory. (This policy allows httpd to listen to the telnet port. It is probably not a good idea)

cat >files/test.te<<EOF
module test 1.0;

require {
	type httpd_t;
	type telnetd_port_t;
	class tcp_socket name_bind;
}

#============= httpd_t ==============
allow httpd_t telnetd_port_t:tcp_socket name_bind;
EOF

- hosts: all
  become: yes
  vars:
    policy_files:
      - test

  roles:
    - ansible-selinux

How to create a .te file

List denied actions:

grep avc /var/log/audit/audit.log

echo "<denied action>" | audit2allow -M -o <name of action>
