6 sandbox_x_selinux - Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the sandbox_x
7 processes
8
10 Security-Enhanced Linux secures the sandbox_x processes via flexible
11 mandatory access control.
12
13 The sandbox_x processes execute with the sandbox_x_t SELinux type. You
14 can check if you have these processes running by executing the ps com‐
15 mand with the -Z qualifier.
16
17 For example:
18
19 ps -eZ | grep sandbox_x_t
20

22
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 sandbox_x policy is very flexible allowing users to setup their sand‐
31 box_x processes in as secure a method as possible.
32
33 The following process types are defined for sandbox_x:
34
35 sandbox_xserver_t, sandbox_x_t, sandbox_x_client_t
36
37 Note: semanage permissive -a sandbox_x_t can be used to make the
38 process type sandbox_x_t permissive. SELinux does not deny access to
39 permissive process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are
40 still generated.
41
42
44 The SELinux process type sandbox_x_t is an MCS (Multi Category Secu‐
45 rity) constrained type. Sometimes this separation is referred to as
46 sVirt. These types are usually used for securing multi-tenant environ‐
47 ments, such as virtualization, containers or separation of users. The
48 tools used to launch MCS types, pick out a different MCS label for each
49 process group.
50
51 For example one process might be launched with sandbox_x_t:s0:c1,c2,
52 and another process launched with sandbox_x_t:s0:c3,c4. The SELinux
53 kernel only allows these processes can only write to content with a
54 matching MCS label, or a MCS Label of s0. A process running with the
55 MCS level of s0:c1,c2 is not allowed to write to content with the MCS
56 label of s0:c3,c4

60 SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required. sand‐
61 box_x policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
62 you to manipulate the policy and run sandbox_x with the tightest access
63 possible.
64
65
66
67 If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as
68 both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the executable
69 should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem bool‐
70 ean. Disabled by default.
71
72 setsebool -P deny_execmem 1
73
74
75
76 If you want to allow system to run with NIS, you must turn on the
77 nis_enabled boolean. Disabled by default.
78
79 setsebool -P nis_enabled 1
80
81
82
84 The SELinux process type sandbox_x_t can manage files labeled with the
85 following file types. The paths listed are the default paths for these
86 file types. Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

121 semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context
122 mappings.
123
124 semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a
125 process type is permissive.

127 semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
128 icy modules.
129
130 semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
131

133 system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
134 icy settings.
