Clarification of labeled IPsec checks

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm doing some spring cleaning on refpolicy, cleaning out some old unused/unnecessary networking permissions.  I'm trying to make sure I have the permissions checks straight, since labeled networking isn't common use.  For labeled IPsec, we have the following permissions (assuming all policy capabilities are on--assume maximum checks):

netif: ingress/egress
node: sendto/recvfrom
peer: recv
association: sendto/recvfrom

I'm told that association perms are checked in the following cases:

sendto: when a packet leaves the box (legacy only) and when a SA/flow is checked
recvfrom: when an incoming packet is queued on a socket (legacy only)

Does "legacy only" mean the checks will eventually go away, or is it for a legacy IPsec configuration?
