6 git_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the git_script
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the git_script processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The git_script processes execute with the git_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
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep git_script_t
20
21
22
24 The git_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the git_script_exec_t,
25 git_script_exec_t file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the git_script_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /var/www/cgi-bin/cgit, /var/www/git/gitweb.cgi, /var/www/gitweb-
31 caching/gitweb.cgi, /var/www/cgi-bin/cgit, /var/www/git/gitweb.cgi,
32 /var/www/gitweb-caching/gitweb.cgi
33
35 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
36 system
37
38 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
39
40 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
41 git_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
42 git_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
43
44 The following process types are defined for git_script:
45
46 git_script_t
47
48 Note: semanage permissive -a git_script_t can be used to make the
49 process type git_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
50 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
51 still generated.
52
53
55 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
56 git_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
57 allow you to manipulate the policy and run git_script with the tightest
58 access possible.
59
60
61
62 If you want to allow users to resolve user passwd entries directly from
63 ldap rather then using a sssd server, you must turn on the authlo‐
64 gin_nsswitch_use_ldap boolean. Disabled by default.
65
66 setsebool -P authlogin_nsswitch_use_ldap 1
67
68
69
70 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
71 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
72
73 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
74
75
76
77 If you want to determine whether Git CGI can search home directories,
78 you must turn on the git_cgi_enable_homedirs boolean. Disabled by
79 default.
80
81 setsebool -P git_cgi_enable_homedirs 1
82
83
84
85 If you want to determine whether Git CGI can access cifs file systems,
86 you must turn on the git_cgi_use_cifs boolean. Disabled by default.
87
88 setsebool -P git_cgi_use_cifs 1
89
90
91
92 If you want to determine whether Git CGI can access nfs file systems,
93 you must turn on the git_cgi_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
94
95 setsebool -P git_cgi_use_nfs 1
96
97
98
99 If you want to determine whether Git system daemon can search home
100 directories, you must turn on the git_system_enable_homedirs boolean.
101 Disabled by default.
102
103 setsebool -P git_system_enable_homedirs 1
104
105
106
107 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
108 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
109
110 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
111
112
113
114 If you want to allow confined applications to run with kerberos, you
115 must turn on the kerberos_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
116
117 setsebool -P kerberos_enabled 1
118
119
120
121 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
122 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
123
124 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
125
126
127
128 If you want to allow confined applications to use nscd shared memory,
129 you must turn on the nscd_use_shm boolean. Disabled by default.
130
131 setsebool -P nscd_use_shm 1
132
133
134
136 The SELinux process type git_script_t can manage files labeled with the
137 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
138 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
139
140 git_rw_content_t
141
142 /var/cache/cgit(/.*)?
143 /var/cache/gitweb-caching(/.*)?
144
145 git_script_tmp_t
146
147
148
150 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
151 type.
152
153 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
154
155 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
156 SELinux git_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
157 their git_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
158
159 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
160
161 SELinux defines the file context types for the git_script, if you
162 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
163 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
164 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
165
166 semanage fcontext -a -t git_script_tmp_t '/srv/mygit_script_con‐
167 tent(/.*)?'
168 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygit_script_content
169
170 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
171 match multiple files.
172
173 The following file types are defined for git_script:
174
175
176
177 git_script_exec_t
178
179 - Set files with the git_script_exec_t type, if you want to transition
180 an executable to the git_script_t domain.
181
182
183 Paths:
184 /var/www/cgi-bin/cgit, /var/www/git/gitweb.cgi, /var/www/gitweb-
185 caching/gitweb.cgi
186
187
188 git_script_tmp_t
189
190 - Set files with the git_script_tmp_t type, if you want to store git
191 script temporary files in the /tmp directories.
192
193
194
195 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
196 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
197 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
198 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
199
200
202 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
203 mappings.
204
205 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
206 process type is permissive.
207
208 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
209 icy modules.
210
211 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
212
213
214 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
215 icy settings.
