Re: How do I tell if SELinux is working?

httpd is running with type:

root:system_r:unconfined_t

What does this mean?  Is httpd a vulnerability on this machine?

Things like a CGI script running sendmail to send an email - which
used to show up in the audit log, now work fine.

What can I do to see if SELinux is still paying attention?


You can run 'ps axZ | grep processname' to see the security context that
a process is running under.  For example,

[root@nexus walters]# ps axZ | grep httpd
root:system_r:httpd_t 2723 ? Ss 0:00 /usr/ sbin/httpd

If you see httpd_t then you can be pretty sure your CGI script is
confined.  The only way it could not be, off the top of my head, is if
you have a script labeled with the type httpd_unconfined_script_exec_t.
