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 file type.
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
34 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
35 system
36
37 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
38
39 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
40 man2html_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 man2html_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for man2html_script:
44
45 man2html_script_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a man2html_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type man2html_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access
49 to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
50 still generated.
51
52
54 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
55 man2html_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
56 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run man2html_script with
57 the tightest access possible.
58
59
60
61 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
64 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
65
66
67
68 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
69 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
70
71 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
72
73
74
76 The SELinux process type man2html_script_t can manage files labeled
77 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
78 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
79 permissions.
80
81 man2html_rw_content_t
82
83 /var/cache/man2html(/.*)?
84
85
87 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
88 type.
89
90 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
91
92 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
93 SELinux man2html_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
94 their man2html_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
95
96 The following file types are defined for man2html_script:
97
98
99
100 man2html_script_exec_t
101
102 - Set files with the man2html_script_exec_t type, if you want to tran‐
103 sition an executable to the man2html_script_t domain.
104
105
106 Paths:
107 /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/mansec, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-
108 bin/man/man2html, /usr/lib/man2html/cgi-bin/man/manwhatis
109
110
111 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
116
118 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
119 mappings.
120
121 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
122 process type is permissive.
123
124 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
125 icy modules.
126
127 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
128
129
130 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
131 icy settings.
