NAME

6       chroot_user_selinux  -  Security  Enhanced  Linux  Policy  for  the ch‐
7       root_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 ch‐
31       root_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.  ch‐
45       root_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.

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

MANAGED FILES

67       The  SELinux  process  type chroot_user_t can manage files labeled with
68       the following file types.  The paths listed are the default  paths  for
69       these  file  types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC per‐
70       missions.
71
72       cifs_t
73
74
75       ecryptfs_t
76
77            /home/[^/]+/.Private(/.*)?
78            /home/[^/]+/.ecryptfs(/.*)?
79
80       fusefs_t
81
82            /var/run/user/[^/]*/gvfs
83
84       nfs_t

COMMANDS

89       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default  file  context
90       mappings.
91
92       semanage  permissive  can  also  be used to manipulate whether or not a
93       process type is permissive.
94
95       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove  pol‐
96       icy modules.
97
98       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
99
100
101       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
102       icy settings.
