6 man2html_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 man2html_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the man2html_script processes via flex‐
11 ible mandatory access control.
12
13 The man2html_script processes execute with the man2html_script_t
14 SELinux type. You can check if you have these processes running by exe‐
15 cuting the ps command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep man2html_script_t
20
21
22
24 The man2html_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 man2html_script_exec_t, man2html_script_exec_t file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the man2html_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/mansec, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-
31 bin/man/man2html, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/manwhatis,
32 /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/mansec, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-
33 bin/man/man2html, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/manwhatis
34
36 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
37 system
38
39 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
40
41 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
42 man2html_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
43 man2html_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
44
45 The following process types are defined for man2html_script:
46
47 man2html_script_t
48
49 Note: semanage permissive -a man2html_script_t can be used to make the
50 process type man2html_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
51 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
52 still generated.
53
54
56 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
57 man2html_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
58 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run man2html_script with
59 the tightest access possible.
60
61
62
63 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
64 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
71 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
72
73 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
74
75
76
78 The SELinux process type man2html_script_t can manage files labeled
79 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
80 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
81 permissions.
82
83 man2html_rw_content_t
84
85 /var/cache/man2html(/.*)?
86
87
89 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
90 type.
91
92 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
93
94 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
95 SELinux man2html_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
96 their man2html_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
97
98 The following file types are defined for man2html_script:
99
100
101
102 man2html_script_exec_t
103
104 - Set files with the man2html_script_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
105 sition an executable to the man2html_script_t domain.
106
107
108 Paths:
109 /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/mansec, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-
110 bin/man/man2html, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/manwhatis
111
112
113 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
114 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
115 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
116 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
117
118
120 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
121 mappings.
122
123 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
124 process type is permissive.
125
126 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
127 icy modules.
128
129 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
130
131
132 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
133 icy settings.
