6 unconfined_service_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the un‐
7 confined_service processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the unconfined_service processes via
11 flexible mandatory access control.
12
13 The unconfined_service processes execute with the unconfined_service_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 unconfined_service_t
20
21
22
24 The unconfined_service_t SELinux type can be entered via the bin_t,
25 usr_t, shell_exec_t file types.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the unconfined_service_t domain are
28 the following:
29
30 All executables with the default executable label, usually stored in
31 /usr/bin and /usr/sbin. /opt/.*, /usr/.*, /emul/.*, /export(/.*)?,
32 /ostree(/.*)?, /usr/doc(/.*)?/lib(/.*)?, /usr/inclu.e(/.*)?,
33 /usr/share/rpm(/.*)?, /usr/share/doc(/.*)?/README.*, /usr/lib/mod‐
34 ules(/.*)/vmlinuz, /usr/lib/modules(/.*)/initramfs.img, /usr/lib/sysim‐
35 age(/.*)?, /usr/lib/ostree-boot(/.*)?, /opt, /usr, /emul, /bin/d?ash,
36 /bin/ksh.*, /bin/zsh.*, /usr/bin/d?ash, /usr/bin/ksh.*, /usr/bin/zsh.*,
37 /bin/esh, /bin/bash, /bin/fish, /bin/mksh, /bin/sash, /bin/tcsh,
38 /bin/yash, /bin/bash2, /usr/bin/esh, /sbin/nologin, /usr/bin/bash,
39 /usr/bin/fish, /usr/bin/mksh, /usr/bin/sash, /usr/bin/tcsh,
40 /usr/bin/yash, /usr/bin/bash2, /usr/sbin/sesh, /usr/sbin/smrsh,
41 /usr/bin/scponly, /usr/libexec/sesh, /usr/sbin/nologin, /usr/bin/git-
42 shell, /usr/sbin/scponlyc, /usr/libexec/sudo/sesh, /usr/bin/cockpit-
43 bridge, /usr/libexec/cockpit-agent, /usr/libexec/git-core/git-shell

46 SELinux defines process types (domains) for each process running on the
47 system
48
49 You can see the context of a process using the -Z option to ps
50
51 Policy governs the access confined processes have to files. SELinux
52 unconfined_service policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
53 their unconfined_service processes in as secure a method as possible.
54
55 The following process types are defined for unconfined_service:
56
57 unconfined_service_t
58
59 Note: semanage permissive -a unconfined_service_t can be used to make
60 the process type unconfined_service_t permissive. SELinux does not deny
61 access to permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) mes‐
62 sages are still generated.
63
64
66 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. uncon‐
67 fined_service policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans
68 that allow you to manipulate the policy and run unconfined_service with
69 the tightest access possible.
70
71
72
73 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
74 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
75 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
76 ean. Enabled by default.
77
78 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
79
80
81
82 If you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address
83 space, as configured by /proc/sys/vm/mmap_min_addr, you must turn on
84 the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.
85
86 setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1
87
88
89
90 If you want to disable kernel module loading, you must turn on the se‐
91 cure_mode_insmod boolean. Enabled by default.
92
93 setsebool -P secure_mode_insmod 1
94
95
96
97 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory
98 executable. Doing this is a really bad idea. Probably indicates a
99 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
100 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_ex‐
101 echeap boolean. Disabled by default.
102
103 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execheap 1
104
105
106
107 If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their stack exe‐
108 cutable. This should never, ever be necessary. Probably indicates a
109 badly coded executable, but could indicate an attack. This executable
110 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the selinuxuser_exec‐
111 stack boolean. Enabled by default.
112
113 setsebool -P selinuxuser_execstack 1

118 The SELinux process type unconfined_service_t can manage files labeled
119 with the following file types. The paths listed are the default paths
120 for these file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC
121 permissions.
122
123 file_type
124
125 all files on the system
126
127
129 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
130 mappings.
131
132 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
133 process type is permissive.
134
135 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
136 icy modules.
137
138 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
139
140
141 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
142 icy settings.
