What: security/ima/policy Date: May 2008 Contact: Mimi Zohar Description: The Trusted Computing Group(TCG) runtime Integrity Measurement Architecture(IMA) maintains a list of hash values of executables and other sensitive system files loaded into the run-time of this system. At runtime, the policy can be constrained based on LSM specific data. Policies are loaded into the securityfs file ima/policy by opening the file, writing the rules one at a time and then closing the file. The new policy takes effect after the file ima/policy is closed. IMA appraisal, if configured, uses these file measurements for local measurement appraisal. :: rule format: action [condition ...] action: measure | dont_measure | appraise | dont_appraise | audit | hash | dont_hash condition:= base | lsm [option] base: [[func=] [mask=] [fsmagic=] [fsuuid=] [uid=] [euid=] [fowner=] [fsname=]] lsm: [[subj_user=] [subj_role=] [subj_type=] [obj_user=] [obj_role=] [obj_type=]] option: [[appraise_type=]] [template=] [permit_directio] [appraise_flag=] [appraise_algos=] [keyrings=] base: func:= [BPRM_CHECK][MMAP_CHECK][CREDS_CHECK][FILE_CHECK][MODULE_CHECK] [FIRMWARE_CHECK] [KEXEC_KERNEL_CHECK] [KEXEC_INITRAMFS_CHECK] [KEXEC_CMDLINE] [KEY_CHECK] [CRITICAL_DATA] [SETXATTR_CHECK] mask:= [[^]MAY_READ] [[^]MAY_WRITE] [[^]MAY_APPEND] [[^]MAY_EXEC] fsmagic:= hex value fsuuid:= file system UUID (e.g 8bcbe394-4f13-4144-be8e-5aa9ea2ce2f6) uid:= decimal value euid:= decimal value fowner:= decimal value lsm: are LSM specific option: appraise_type:= [imasig] [imasig|modsig] appraise_flag:= [check_blacklist] Currently, blacklist check is only for files signed with appended signature. keyrings:= list of keyrings (eg, .builtin_trusted_keys|.ima). Only valid when action is "measure" and func is KEY_CHECK. template:= name of a defined IMA template type (eg, ima-ng). Only valid when action is "measure". pcr:= decimal value label:= [selinux]|[kernel_info]|[data_label] data_label:= a unique string used for grouping and limiting critical data. For example, "selinux" to measure critical data for SELinux. appraise_algos:= comma-separated list of hash algorithms For example, "sha256,sha512" to only accept to appraise files where the security.ima xattr was hashed with one of these two algorithms. default policy: # PROC_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x9fa0 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x9fa0 # SYSFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x62656572 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x62656572 # DEBUGFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x64626720 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x64626720 # TMPFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x01021994 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x01021994 # RAMFS_MAGIC dont_appraise fsmagic=0x858458f6 # DEVPTS_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x1cd1 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x1cd1 # BINFMTFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x42494e4d dont_appraise fsmagic=0x42494e4d # SECURITYFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x73636673 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x73636673 # SELINUX_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0xf97cff8c dont_appraise fsmagic=0xf97cff8c # CGROUP_SUPER_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x27e0eb dont_appraise fsmagic=0x27e0eb # NSFS_MAGIC dont_measure fsmagic=0x6e736673 dont_appraise fsmagic=0x6e736673 measure func=BPRM_CHECK measure func=FILE_MMAP mask=MAY_EXEC measure func=FILE_CHECK mask=MAY_READ uid=0 measure func=MODULE_CHECK measure func=FIRMWARE_CHECK appraise fowner=0 The default policy measures all executables in bprm_check, all files mmapped executable in file_mmap, and all files open for read by root in do_filp_open. The default appraisal policy appraises all files owned by root.
