NAME

6       gitosis_selinux  -  Security Enhanced Linux Policy for the gitosis pro‐
7       cesses
8

DESCRIPTION

10       Security-Enhanced Linux secures  the  gitosis  processes  via  flexible
11       mandatory access control.
12
13       The  gitosis processes execute with the gitosis_t SELinux type. You can
14       check if you have these processes running by executing the  ps  command
15       with the -Z qualifier.
16
17       For example:
18
19       ps -eZ | grep gitosis_t
20
21
22

ENTRYPOINTS

24       The  gitosis_t  SELinux type can be entered via the gitosis_exec_t file
25       type.
26
27       The default entrypoint paths for the gitosis_t domain are  the  follow‐
28       ing:
29
30       /usr/bin/gitosis-serve, /usr/bin/gl-auth-command
31

PROCESS TYPES

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       gitosis  policy  is very flexible allowing users to setup their gitosis
40       processes in as secure a method as possible.
41
42       The following process types are defined for gitosis:
43
44       gitosis_t
45
46       Note: semanage permissive -a gitosis_t can be used to make the  process
47       type  gitosis_t  permissive. SELinux does not deny access to permissive
48       process types, but the AVC (SELinux denials) messages are still  gener‐
49       ated.
50
51

BOOLEANS

53       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  gitosis
54       policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow you to
55       manipulate  the  policy and run gitosis with the tightest access possi‐
56       ble.
57
58
59
60       If you want to determine whether Gitosis can send mail, you  must  turn
61       on the gitosis_can_sendmail boolean. Disabled by default.
62
63       setsebool -P gitosis_can_sendmail 1
64
65
66
67       If you want to allow all domains to execute in fips_mode, you must turn
68       on the fips_mode boolean. Enabled by default.
69
70       setsebool -P fips_mode 1
71

73

MANAGED FILES

75       The SELinux process type gitosis_t can manage files  labeled  with  the
76       following file types.  The paths listed are the default paths for these
77       file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.
78
79       gitosis_var_lib_t
80
81            /srv/lib/gitosis(/.*)?
82            /var/lib/gitosis(/.*)?
83            /var/lib/gitolite(3)?(/.*)?
84
85

FILE CONTEXTS

87       SELinux requires files to have an extended attribute to define the file
88       type.
89
90       You can see the context of a file using the -Z option to ls
91
92       Policy  governs  the  access  confined  processes  have to these files.
93       SELinux gitosis policy is very flexible allowing users to  setup  their
94       gitosis processes in as secure a method as possible.
95
96       STANDARD FILE CONTEXT
97
98       SELinux  defines  the file context types for the gitosis, if you wanted
99       to store files with these types in a different paths, you need to  exe‐
100       cute  the  semanage  command to specify alternate labeling and then use
101       restorecon to put the labels on disk.
102
103       semanage fcontext -a -t gitosis_exec_t '/srv/gitosis/content(/.*)?'
104       restorecon -R -v /srv/mygitosis_content
105
106       Note: SELinux often uses regular expressions  to  specify  labels  that
107       match multiple files.
108
109       The following file types are defined for gitosis:
110
111
112
113       gitosis_exec_t
114
115       -  Set files with the gitosis_exec_t type, if you want to transition an
116       executable to the gitosis_t domain.
117
118
119       Paths:
120            /usr/bin/gitosis-serve, /usr/bin/gl-auth-command
121
122
123       gitosis_var_lib_t
124
125       - Set files with the gitosis_var_lib_t type, if you want to  store  the
126       gitosis files under the /var/lib directory.
127
128
129       Paths:
130            /srv/lib/gitosis(/.*)?,   /var/lib/gitosis(/.*)?,   /var/lib/gito‐
131            lite(3)?(/.*)?
132
133
134       Note: File context can be temporarily modified with the chcon  command.
135       If  you want to permanently change the file context you need to use the
136       semanage fcontext command.  This will modify the SELinux labeling data‐
137       base.  You will need to use restorecon to apply the labels.
138
139

COMMANDS

141       semanage  fcontext  can also be used to manipulate default file context
142       mappings.
143
144       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate  whether  or  not  a
145       process type is permissive.
146
147       semanage  module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove pol‐
148       icy modules.
149
150       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans
151
152
153       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux pol‐
154       icy settings.
