6 sandbox_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sandbox pro‐
7 cesses
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the sandbox processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The sandbox processes execute with the sandbox_t SELinux type. You can
14 check if you have these processes running by executing the ps command
15 with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep sandbox_t
20
21
22
24 The sandbox_t SELinux type can be entered via the file_type file type.
25
26 The default entrypoint paths for the sandbox_t domain are the follow‐
27 ing:
28
29 all files on the system
30
32 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
33 system
34
35 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
36
37 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
38 sandbox policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sandbox
39 processes in as secure a method as possible.
40
41 The following process types are defined for sandbox:
42
43 sandbox_x_client_t, sandbox_net_client_t, sandbox_xserver_t, sandbox_x_t, sandbox_web_client_t, sandbox_min_t, sandbox_net_t, sandbox_web_t, sandbox_min_client_t, sandbox_t
44
45 Note: semanage permissive -a sandbox_t can be used to make the process
46 type sandbox_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
47 process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still gener‐
48 ated.
49
50
52 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sandbox
53 policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
54 manipulate the policy and run sandbox with the tightest access possi‐
55 ble.
56
57
58
59 If you want to allow all domains to use other domains file descriptors,
60 you must turn on the allow_domain_fd_use boolean. Enabled by default.
61
62 setsebool -P allow_domain_fd_use 1
63
64
65
66 If you want to allow sysadm to debug or ptrace all processes, you must
67 turn on the allow_ptrace boolean. Disabled by default.
68
69 setsebool -P allow_ptrace 1
70
71
72
73 If you want to allow all domains to have the kernel load modules, you
74 must turn on the domain_kernel_load_modules boolean. Disabled by
75 default.
76
77 setsebool -P domain_kernel_load_modules 1
78
79
80
81 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
82 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
83
84 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
85
86
87
88 If you want to enable reading of urandom for all domains, you must turn
89 on the global_ssp boolean. Disabled by default.
90
91 setsebool -P global_ssp 1
92
93
94
96 The SELinux process type sandbox_t can manage files labeled with the
97 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
98 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

131 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
132 type.
133
134 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
135
136 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
137 SELinux sandbox policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
138 sandbox processes in as secure a method as possible.
139
140 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
141
142 SELinux defines the file context types for the sandbox, if you wanted
143 to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to execute
144 the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then use
145 restorecon to put the labels on disk.
146
147 semanage fcontext -a -t sandbox_xserver_tmpfs_t '/srv/mysandbox_con‐
148 tent(/.*)?'
149 restorecon -R -v /srv/mysandbox_content
150
151 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
152 match multiple files.
153
154 The following file types are defined for sandbox:
155
156
157
158 sandbox_devpts_t
159
160 - Set files with the sandbox_devpts_t type, if you want to treat the
161 files as sandbox devpts data.
162
163
164
165 sandbox_exec_t
166
167 - Set files with the sandbox_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
168 executable to the sandbox_t domain.
169
170
171
172 sandbox_file_t
173
174 - Set files with the sandbox_file_t type, if you want to treat the
175 files as sandbox content.
176
177
178
179 sandbox_min_client_tmpfs_t
180
181 - Set files with the sandbox_min_client_tmpfs_t type, if you want to
182 store sandbox min client files on a tmpfs file system.
183
184
185
186 sandbox_net_client_tmpfs_t
187
188 - Set files with the sandbox_net_client_tmpfs_t type, if you want to
189 store sandbox net client files on a tmpfs file system.
190
191
192
193 sandbox_web_client_tmpfs_t
194
195 - Set files with the sandbox_web_client_tmpfs_t type, if you want to
196 store sandbox web client files on a tmpfs file system.
197
198
199
200 sandbox_x_client_tmpfs_t
201
202 - Set files with the sandbox_x_client_tmpfs_t type, if you want to
203 store sandbox x client files on a tmpfs file system.
204
205
206
207 sandbox_xserver_tmpfs_t
208
209 - Set files with the sandbox_xserver_tmpfs_t type, if you want to store
210 sandbox xserver files on a tmpfs file system.
211
212
213
214 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
215 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
216 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
217 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
218
219
221 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
222 mappings.
223
224 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
225 process type is permissive.
226
227 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
228 icy modules.
229
230 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
231
232
233 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
234 icy settings.
