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 file type.
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
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 git_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
41 git_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
42
43 The following process types are defined for git_script:
44
45 git_script_t
46
47 Note: semanage permissive -a git_script_t can be used to make the
48 process type git_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
49 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 git_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
56 allow you to manipulate the policy and run git_script with the tightest
57 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 determine whether Git CGI can search home directories,
69 you must turn on the git_cgi_enable_homedirs boolean. Disabled by
70 default.
71
72 setsebool -P git_cgi_enable_homedirs 1
73
74
75
76 If you want to determine whether Git CGI can access cifs file systems,
77 you must turn on the git_cgi_use_cifs boolean. Disabled by default.
78
79 setsebool -P git_cgi_use_cifs 1
80
81
82
83 If you want to determine whether Git CGI can access nfs file systems,
84 you must turn on the git_cgi_use_nfs boolean. Disabled by default.
85
86 setsebool -P git_cgi_use_nfs 1
87
88
89
90 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
91 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
94
95
96
97 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
98 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
99
100 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
101
102
103
105 The SELinux process type git_script_t can manage files labeled with the
106 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
107 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
108
109 git_rw_content_t
110
111 /var/cache/cgit(/.*)?
112 /var/cache/gitweb-caching(/.*)?
113
114
116 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
117 type.
118
119 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
120
121 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
122 SELinux git_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
123 their git_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
124
125 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
126
127 SELinux defines the file context types for the git_script, if you
128 wanted to store files with these types in a diffent paths, you need to
129 execute the semanage command to sepecify alternate labeling and then
130 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
131
132 semanage fcontext -a -t git_script_tmp_t '/srv/mygit_script_con‐
133 tent(/.*)?'
134 restorecon -R -v /srv/mygit_script_content
135
136 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
137 match multiple files.
138
139 The following file types are defined for git_script:
140
141
142
143 git_script_exec_t
144
145 - Set files with the git_script_exec_t type, if you want to transition
146 an executable to the git_script_t domain.
147
148
149 Paths:
150 /var/www/cgi-bin/cgit, /var/www/git/gitweb.cgi, /var/www/gitweb-
151 caching/gitweb.cgi
152
153
154 git_script_tmp_t
155
156 - Set files with the git_script_tmp_t type, if you want to store git
157 script temporary files in the /tmp directories.
158
159
160
161 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
162 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
163 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
164 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
165
166
168 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
169 mappings.
170
171 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
172 process type is permissive.
173
174 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
175 icy modules.
176
177 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
178
179
180 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
181 icy settings.
