Operating System and Software
- Rocky Linux 8
- CentOS 7
- CentOS 6
Problem
- Does the java process have a SELinux policy defined in RHEL?
- Does Red Hat provide a custom SELinux policy for java?
How to Fix
-
Red Hat does not provide any defined policy for
java
process becausejava
process runs in the context of the caller (application).For example: Any tomcat application is running java then java process will have context as `tomcat_t` because tomcat has defined domain to run in `tomcat_t`.
-
java
is an interpreter like other interpreters similar to Bash, Python, Perl. So there is no specific domain for java. - Red Hat does not provide a custom SELinux policy. The creation of custom Security/SELinux policies is outside the Production Support Scope of Coverage.
