6 mozilla_plugin_config_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 mozilla_plugin_config processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the mozilla_plugin_config processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12 The mozilla_plugin_config processes execute with the mozilla_plug‐
14 in_config_t SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes
15 running by executing the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep mozilla_plugin_config_t
20
24 The mozilla_plugin_config_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 mozilla_plugin_config_exec_t file type.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the mozilla_plugin_config_t domain are
28 the following:
29 /usr/lib/nspluginwrapper/plugin-config
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 mozilla_plugin_config policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
40 their mozilla_plugin_config processes in as secure a method as possi‐
41 ble.
42 The following process types are defined for mozilla_plugin_config:
44 mozilla_plugin_config_t
46 Note: semanage permissive -a mozilla_plugin_config_t can be used to
48 make the process type mozilla_plugin_config_t permissive. SELinux does
49 not deny access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux
50 denials) messages are still generated.
51
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 mozilla_plugin_config policy is extremely flexible and has several
56 booleans that allow you to manipulate the policy and run mozilla_plug‐
57 in_config with the tightest access possible.
58 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
62 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
63 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
64 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1

70 processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by
71 default.

101 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
102 default.
103 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
105 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
109 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
110 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
112 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
116 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
117 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
119 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
123 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Enabled by default.
124 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
126 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
130 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
131 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
133 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
137 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
138 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
140 If you want to allow unconfined users to transition to the Mozilla
144 plugin domain when running xulrunner plugin-container, you must turn on
145 the unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition boolean. Enabled by default.
146 setsebool -P unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition 1
148 If you want to support ecryptfs home directories, you must turn on the
152 use_ecryptfs_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
153 setsebool -P use_ecryptfs_home_dirs 1
155
159 The SELinux process type mozilla_plugin_config_t can manage files
160 labeled with the following file types. The paths listed are the
161 default paths for these file types. Note the processes UID still need
162 to have DAC permissions.

213 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
214 type.
215 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
217 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
219 SELinux mozilla_plugin_config policy is very flexible allowing users to
220 setup their mozilla_plugin_config processes in as secure a method as
221 possible.
222 The following file types are defined for mozilla_plugin_config:
224 mozilla_plugin_config_exec_t
228 - Set files with the mozilla_plugin_config_exec_t type, if you want to
230 transition an executable to the mozilla_plugin_config_t domain.
231 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
235 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
236 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
237 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
238
241 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
242 mappings.
243 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
245 process type is permissive.
246 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
248 icy modules.
249 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
251 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
254 icy settings.
