Description
The SELinux state should be set to enforcing
at
system boot time. In the file /etc/selinux/config
, add or correct the
following line to configure the system to boot into enforcing mode:
Rationale
Setting the SELinux state to enforcing ensures SELinux is able to confine
potentially compromised processes to the security policy, which is designed to
prevent them from causing damage to the system or further elevating their
privileges.
Shell script
The following script can be run on the host to remediate the issue.
#!/bin/bash
# Remediation is applicable only in certain platforms
if [ ! -f /.dockerenv ] && [ ! -f /run/.containerenv ]; then
var_selinux_state='enforcing'
if [ -e "/etc/selinux/config" ] ; then
LC_ALL=C sed -i "/^SELINUX=/Id" "/etc/selinux/config"
else
touch "/etc/selinux/config"
fi
# make sure file has newline at the end
sed -i -e '$a\' "/etc/selinux/config"
cp "/etc/selinux/config" "/etc/selinux/config.bak"
# Insert at the end of the file
printf '%s\n' "SELINUX=$var_selinux_state" >> "/etc/selinux/config"
# Clean up after ourselves.
rm "/etc/selinux/config.bak"
fixfiles onboot
fixfiles -f relabel
else
>&2 echo 'Remediation is not applicable, nothing was done'
fi
Ansible playbook
The following playbook can be run with Ansible to remediate the issue.
