49.6.4. Enabling MLS in SELinux
Note
It is not recommended to use the MLS policy on a system that is running the X Window System.
Follow these steps to enable the SELinux MLS policy on your system.
- Install the selinux-policy-mls package:
~]#
yum install selinux-policy-mls - Before the MLS policy is enabled, each file on the file system must be relabeled with an MLS label. When the file system is relabeled, confined domains may be denied access, which may prevent your system from booting correctly. To prevent this from happening, configure
SELINUX=permissivein the/etc/selinux/configfile. Also, enable the MLS policy by configuringSELINUXTYPE=mls. Your configuration file should look like this:# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=permissive # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: # targeted - Targeted processes are protected, # minimum - Modification of targeted policy. Only selected processes are protected. # mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=mls
- Make sure SELinux is running in the permissive mode:
~]#
setenforce 0~]#getenforcePermissive - Create the
.autorelabelfile in root's home directory to ensure that files are relabeled upon next reboot:~]#
touch /.autorelabel - Reboot your system. During the next boot, all file systems will be relabeled according to the MLS policy. The label process labels all files with an appropriate SELinux context:
*** Warning -- SELinux mls policy relabel is required. *** Relabeling could take a very long time, depending on file *** system size and speed of hard drives. ***********
Each * (asterisk) character on the bottom line represents 1000 files that have been labeled. In the above example, eleven * characters represent 11000 files which have been labeled. The time it takes to label all files depends upon the number of files on the system, and the speed of the hard disk drives. On modern systems, this process can take as little as 10 minutes. Once the labeling process finishes, the system will automatically reboot. - Once the file system is relabeled, execute the following commands to assure that the
/rootdirectory and all other home directories are properly labeled:~]#
genhomedircon~]#restorecon -R -v /root /home <other_home_directories> - In permissive mode, SELinux policy is not enforced, but denials are still logged for actions that would have been denied if running in enforcing mode. Before changing to enforcing mode, as the Linux root user, run the
grep "SELinux is preventing" /var/log/messagescommand to confirm that SELinux did not deny actions during the last boot. If SELinux did not deny actions during the last boot, this command does not return any output. - If there were no denial messages in
/var/log/messages, or you have resolved all existing denials, configureSELINUX=enforcingin the/etc/selinux/configfile:# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded. SELINUX=enforcing # SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values: # targeted - Targeted processes are protected, # minimum - Modification of targeted policy. Only selected processes are protected. # mls - Multi Level Security protection. SELINUXTYPE=mls
- Reboot your system and make sure SELinux is running in permissive mode:
~]$
getenforceEnforcingand the MLS policy is enabled:~]#
sestatus |grep mlsPolicy from config file: mls
