NAME

       unconfined_r - Unconfined user role - Security Enhanced Linux Policy

DESCRIPTION

       SELinux supports Roles Based Access Control (RBAC), some Linux roles are login roles, while other roles need to be transition into.

       Note: Examples in this man page will use the staff_u SELinux user.

       Non  login  roles  are usually used for administrative tasks. For example, tasks that require root privileges.  Roles control which types a
       user can run processes with. Roles often have default types assigned to them.

       The default type for the unconfined_r role is unconfined_t.

       The newrole program to transition directly to this role.

       newrole -r unconfined_r -t unconfined_t

       sudo is the preferred method to do transition from one role to another.	You setup sudo to transition to unconfined_r by adding	a  similar
       line to the /etc/sudoers file.

       USERNAME ALL=(ALL) ROLE=unconfined_r TYPE=unconfined_t COMMAND

       sudo will run COMMAND as staff_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t:LEVEL

       When using a a non login role, you need to setup SELinux so that your SELinux user can reach unconfined_r role.

       Execute the following to see all of the assigned SELinux roles:

       semanage user -l

       You  need to add unconfined_r to the staff_u user.  You could setup the staff_u user to be able to use the unconfined_r role with a command
       like:

       $ semanage user -m -R 'staff_r system_r unconfined_r' staff_u

BOOLEANS

       SELinux policy is customizable based on least access required.  unconfined policy is extremely flexible and has several booleans that allow
       you to manipulate the policy and run unconfined with the tightest access possible.

       If  you want to allow unconfined users to transition to the chrome sandbox domains when running chrome-sandbox, you must turn on the uncon-
       fined_chrome_sandbox_transition boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P unconfined_chrome_sandbox_transition 1

       If you want to allow a user to login as an unconfined domain, you must turn on the unconfined_login boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P daemons_use_tty 1

       If you want to deny user domains applications to map a memory region as both executable and writable, this is dangerous and the	executable
       should be reported in bugzilla, you must turn on the deny_execmem boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P deny_execmem 1

       If  you	want  to  deny	any  process  from ptracing or debugging any other processes, you must turn on the deny_ptrace boolean. Enabled by

       default.

       setsebool -P login_console_enabled 1

       If  you want to control the ability to mmap a low area of the address space, as configured by /proc/sys/kernel/mmap_min_addr, you must turn
       on the mmap_low_allowed boolean. Disabled by default.

       setsebool -P mmap_low_allowed 1

       If  you	want  to boolean to determine whether the system permits loading policy, setting enforcing mode, and changing boolean values.  Set
       this to true and you have to reboot to set it back, you must turn on the secure_mode_policyload boolean. Enabled by default.

       setsebool -P secure_mode_policyload 1

       If you want to allow unconfined executables to make their heap memory executable.  Doing this is a really bad idea.  Probably  indicates  a

MANAGED FILES

       The SELinux process type unconfined_t can manage files labeled with the following file types.  The paths listed are the default	paths  for
       these file types.  Note the processes UID still need to have DAC permissions.

       file_type

	    all files on the system

COMMANDS

       semanage fcontext can also be used to manipulate default file context mappings.

       semanage permissive can also be used to manipulate whether or not a process type is permissive.

       semanage module can also be used to enable/disable/install/remove policy modules.

       semanage boolean can also be used to manipulate the booleans

       system-config-selinux is a GUI tool available to customize SELinux policy settings.
