6 cvs_script_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the cvs_script
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the cvs_script processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The cvs_script processes execute with the cvs_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 cvs_script_t
20
21
22
24 The cvs_script_t SELinux type can be entered via the cvs_script_exec_t
25 file type.
26
27 The default entrypoint paths for the cvs_script_t domain are the fol‐
28 lowing:
29
30 /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi, /usr/share/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi
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 cvs_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their
40 cvs_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42 The following process types are defined for cvs_script:
43
44 cvs_script_t
45
46 Note: semanage permissive -a cvs_script_t can be used to make the
47 process type cvs_script_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
48 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
49 still generated.
50
51
53 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.
54 cvs_script policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that
55 allow you to manipulate the policy and run cvs_script with the tightest
56 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 httpd_en‐
68 able_cgi boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70 setsebool -P httpd_enable_cgi 1
71
72
73
74 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
75 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
76
77 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
78
79

82 The SELinux process type cvs_script_t can manage files labeled with the
83 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
84 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
85
86 cvs_rw_content_t
87
88
89 cvs_tmp_t
90
91
92
94 SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
95 type.
96
97 You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
98
99 Policy governs the access confined processes have to these files.
100 SELinux cvs_script policy is very flexible allowing users to setup
101 their cvs_script processes in as secure a method as possible.
102
103 STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
104
105 SELinux defines the file context types for the cvs_script, if you
106 wanted to store files with these types in a different paths, you need
107 to execute the semanage command to specify alternate labeling and then
108 use restorecon to put the labels on disk.
109
110 semanage fcontext -a -t cvs_script_exec_t '/srv/cvs_script/con‐
111 tent(/.*)?'
112 restorecon -R -v /srv/mycvs_script_content
113
114 Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions to specify labels that
115 match multiple files.
116
117 The following file types are defined for cvs_script:
118
119
120
121 cvs_script_exec_t
122
123 - Set files with the cvs_script_exec_t type, if you want to transition
124 an executable to the cvs_script_t domain.
125
126
127 Paths:
128 /var/www/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi, /usr/share/cvsweb/cvsweb.cgi
129
130
131 Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon command.
132 If you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
133 semanage fcontext command. This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
134 base. You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
135
136
138 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
139 mappings.
140
141 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
142 process type is permissive.
143
144 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
145 icy modules.
146
147 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
148
149
150 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
151 icy settings.
