6 cvs_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cvs_script
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cvs_script processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12 The cvs_script processes execute with the cvs_script_t SELinux type.
14 You can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps
15 command with the -Z qualifier.
16 For example:
18 ps -eZ | grep cvs_script_t
20
24 The cvs_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the cvs_script_exec_t,
25 cvs_script_exec_t file types.
26 The default entrypoint paths for the cvs_script_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29 /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi, /usr/share/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi,
31 /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi, /usr/share/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi
32
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 cvs_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 cvs_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42 The following process types are defined for cvs_script:
44 cvs_script_t
46 Note: semanage permissive -a cvs_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type cvs_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
49 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 cvs_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56 allow you to manipulate the policy and run cvs_script with the tightest
57 access possible.
58 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
62 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
69 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
70 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
72
76 The SELinux process type cvs_script_t can manage files labeled with the
77 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
78 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
79 cvs_rw_content_t
81 cvs_tmp_t
84
88 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
89 type.
90 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
92 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
94 SELinux cvs_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
95 their cvs_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
96 The following file types are defined for cvs_script:
98 cvs_script_exec_t
102 - Set files with the cvs_script_exec_t type, if you want to transition
104 an executable to the cvs_script_t domain.
105 Paths:
108 /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi, /usr/share/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi
109 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
112 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
113 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
114 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
115
118 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
119 mappings.
120 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
122 process type is permissive.
123 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
125 icy modules.
126 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
128 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
131 icy settings.
