<para> The File System Firewall Policy (&man.mac.bsdextended.4;)
|
||||
provides an extension to the BSD file system permission model,
|
||||
permitting the administrator to define a set of firewall-like
|
||||
rules for limiting access to file system objects owned by
|
||||
other users and groups. Managed using &man.ugidfw.8;, rules
|
||||
may limits access to files and directories based on the uid
|
||||
and gids of the process attempting the access, and the owner
|
||||
and group of the target of the access attempt. All rules
|
||||
are restrictive, so may be placed in any order. This policy
|
||||
requires no prior configuration or labeling, and may be
|
||||
appropriate in multi-user environments where mandatory limits
|
||||
on inter-user data exchange are required. Caution should be
|
||||
exercised in limiting access to files owned by the root or
|
||||
other system user ids, as many useful programs and directories
|
||||
are owned by these users. As with a network firewall,
|
||||
improper application of file system firewall rules may render
|
||||
the system unusable. New tools to manage the rule set may be
|
||||
easily written using the &man.libugidfw.3; library.</para>
