[refpolicy] rawip_socket permissions

[russell@coker.com.au (Russell Coker)]

I was working on NetworkManager policy and needed to write policy for 
rawip_socket access.  As there wasn't a macro specifying the permissions 
needed I decided to grep the existing policy to see what others have done, 
this shows the need for such a macro:

admin/netutils.te:allow traceroute_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
admin/netutils.te:allow ping_t self:rawip_socket { create ioctl read write 
bind getopt setopt getattr };

Two different uses in the one file.  I hope I didn't write that.

contrib/automount.te:allow automount_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/collectd.te:allow collectd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/cups.te:allow hplip_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/iodine.te:allow iodined_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/l2tp.te:allow l2tpd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/nessus.te:allow nessusd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/openvswitch.te:allow openvswitch_t self:rawip_socket 
create_socket_perms;
contrib/ppp.te:allow pptp_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/psad.te:allow psad_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/radvd.te:allow radvd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/rdisc.te:allow rdisc_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/vmware.te:allow vmware_host_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/vpn.te:allow vpnc_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/watchdog.te:allow watchdog_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/zebra.te:allow zebra_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/pingd.te:allow pingd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/dhcp.te:allow dhcpd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/dnsmasq.te:allow dnsmasq_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/virt.te:allow virtd_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
contrib/virt.te:allow svirt_lxc_net_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
system/udev.te:allow udev_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
system/modutils.te:allow kmod_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
system/systemd.te:allow systemd_networkd_t self:rawip_socket 
create_socket_perms;
system/iptables.te:allow iptables_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;
system/sysnetwork.te:allow dhcpc_t self:rawip_socket create_socket_perms;

create_socket_perms is the obvious favourite, while the rawip_socket class 
inherits everything from socket, is there anything that actually does a bind 
or connect operation on rawip?  I guess there's no harm having an allow rule 
for something that can't happen, but it's confusing if nothing else.

contrib/monit.te:allow monit_t self:rawip_socket connected_socket_perms;
contrib/squid.te:       allow squid_t self:rawip_socket 
connected_socket_perms;

The same for connected_socket_perms, it allows bind but not connect.

contrib/telepathy.te:allow telepathy_sofiasip_t self:rawip_socket 
create_stream_socket_perms;

create_stream_socket_perms has the obvious issue that rawip is not a stream, 
but also listen and accept aren't operations that are going to happen on 
rawip.
 
contrib/portage.if:     allow $1 self:rawip_socket { create ioctl };

I wonder what this is about.  I guess it's possible that some code in portage 
creates a rawip socket but does nothing with it, but if so that would be a bug 
in the code.  It could be that the code creates a rawip socket and then gets 
an error when it can't use it.

define(`rawip_socket_perms', `{ create getopt setopt getattr read write }')

Maybe we need something like the above in the policy.  In a quick test I 
couldn't get any other access to be used.

Why does hplip need rawip access?  Is it for mDNS?  I think we need a boolean 
for that, I don't want my print server reading all network traffic.

Why does collectd need rawip access?  Is it for multicast?

This is a first analysis of the issue.  After getting suggestions I'll write a 
patch, test it on a few different systems, and send it for discussion.
