6 httpd_user_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the
7 httpd_user_script processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the httpd_user_script processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The httpd_user_script processes execute with the httpd_user_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 httpd_user_script_t
20
21
22
24 The httpd_user_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the
25 httpd_user_script_exec_t, httpdcontent file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the httpd_user_script_t domain are the
28 following:
29
30 /home/[^/]+/((www)|(web)|(public_html))/cgi-bin(/.+)?
31
33 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
34 system
35
36 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
37
38 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
39 httpd_user_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 httpd_user_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for httpd_user_script:
43
44 httpd_user_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a httpd_user_script_t can be used to make
47 the process type httpd_user_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
48 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
49 sages are still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 httpd_user_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
55 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run httpd_user_script with
56 the tightest access possible.
57
58
59
60 If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
61 on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
62
63 setsebool -P fips_mode 1
64
65
66
67 If you want to allow httpd cgi support, you must turn on the
68 httpd_enable_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow httpd to read home directories, you must turn on
75 the httpd_enable_homedirs boolean. Disabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P httpd_enable_homedirs 1
78
79
80
81 If you want to allow httpd to read user content, you must turn on the
82 httpd_read_user_content boolean. Disabled by default.
83
84 setsebool -P httpd_read_user_content 1
85
86
87
88 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
89 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
90
91 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
92
93
94
96 The SELinux process type httpd_user_script_t can manage files labeled
97 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
98 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
99 permissions.
100
101 httpd_user_rw_content_t
102
103
104
106 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
107 type.
108
109 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
110
111 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
112 SELinux httpd_user_script policy is very flexible allowing users to
113 setup their httpd_user_script processes in as secure a method as possi‐
114 ble.
115
116 The following file types are defined for httpd_user_script:
117
118
119
120 httpd_user_script_exec_t
121
122 - Set files with the httpd_user_script_exec_t type, if you want to
123 transition an executable to the httpd_user_script_t domain.
124
125
126
127 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
128 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
129 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
130 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
131
132
134 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
135 mappings.
136
137 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
138 process type is permissive.
139
140 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
141 icy modules.
142
143 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
144
145
146 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
147 icy settings.
