NAME

6       chroot_user_selinux   -   Security   Enhanced   Linux  Policy  for  the
7       chroot_user processes
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures the chroot_user processes via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  chroot_user processes execute with the chroot_user_t SELinux type.
14       You can check if you have these processes running by executing  the  ps
15       command with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep chroot_user_t

PROCESS TYPES

24       SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
25       system
26
27       You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
28
29       Policy governs the access confined processes have  to  files.   SELinux
30       chroot_user  policy  is  very  flexible  allowing  users to setup their
31       chroot_user processes in as secure a method as possible.
32
33       The following process types are defined for chroot_user:
34
35       chroot_user_t
36
37       Note: semanage permissive -a chroot_user_t can  be  used  to  make  the
38       process  type chroot_user_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
39       permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux  denials)  messages  are
40       still generated.

BOOLEANS

44       SELinux   policy  is  customizable  based  on  least  access  required.
45       chroot_user policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans  that
46       allow  you to manipulate the policy and run chroot_user with the tight‐
47       est access possible.
48
49
50
51       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
52       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
53
54       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
55
56
57
58       If you want to allow ssh with chroot env to read and write files in the
59       user home directories, you  must  turn  on  the  ssh_chroot_rw_homedirs
60       boolean. Disabled by default.
61
62       setsebool -P ssh_chroot_rw_homedirs 1
63
64
65
66       If  you  want  to  support SAMBA home directories, you must turn on the
67       use_samba_home_dirs boolean. Disabled by default.
68
69       setsebool -P use_samba_home_dirs 1

MANAGED FILES

74       The SELinux process type chroot_user_t can manage  files  labeled  with
75       the  following  file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for
76       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have  DAC  per‐
77       missions.
78
79       cifs_t

81
82       ecryptfs_t
83
84            /home/[^/]+/.Private(/.*)?
85            /home/[^/]+/.ecryptfs(/.*)?
86
87       fusefs_t

COMMANDS

100       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
101       mappings.
102
103       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
104       process type is permissive.
105
106       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
107       icy modules.
108
109       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
110
111
112       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
113       icy settings.
