Greetings:

I have been trying to figure out how to control the execution of Java
JAR files with SELinux RBAC.

I have two Linux users named joe and mary and two Java JAR files named
jack.jar and mary.jar.

Here is how jack executes jack.jar: java -jar jack.jar

Here is how mary executes mary.jar: java -jar mary.jar

I would like SELinux RBAC to prevent jack from executing mary.jar and
prevent mary from executing jack.jar.

Leaving a bit aside the original question (to which I want to learn the answer as well), may I ask why isn't something like :
   chown jack jack.jar
   chown mary mary.jar
   chmod 700 jack.jar
   chmod 700 mary.jar
suitable for your use case ?

Indeed, I am aware of this approach.  However, that scheme is the DAC (discretionary access control) solution which is not ideal for my case.  I am more interested in the MAC (mandatory access control) solution (thus SELinux RBAC).  Thanks!  -Bill
