TOMOYO

---

Introduction to TOMOYO

The fundamental concept of TOMOYO Linux is "tracking process invocation history". TOMOYO Linux splits domains using "process invocation history" and the process transits to a different domain whenever execution of a program (i.e. do_execve()) is requested. By transiting to a different domain whenever execution of a program is requested, each domain will have the minimal permissions that are essential for processes in that domain to do their roles. For more information, see http://tomoyo.sourceforge.jp/wiki-e/?WhatIs.

• None (no more package required for LFS Linux.)

Rebuild Kernel

Version 2.6.29.1 Kernel and TOMOYO 1.7.2-2010804

[ ] Socket and Networking Security Hooks
-*- Security hooks for pathname based access control

sed -i 's@/usr/lib@/usr/lib32@g' Makefile &&
make CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}"

Install the package:

make CC="gcc ${BUILD64}"

Install the package:

make install

Configuring

Configuring TOMOYO 1.7.2-2010804

Run init_policy.sh to perform initial configuration for ccs patch

/usr/lib/ccs/init_policy.sh

You will get initial configuration files in /etc/ccs/ directory.

Configuring TOMOYO 2.2.0

Run tomoyo_init_policy.sh to perform initial configuration for TOMOYO 2.x.

/usr/lib/ccs/tomoyo_init_policy.sh

You will get initial configuration files in /etc/tomoyo/ directory.

Configuring TOMOYO Audit Logging

cat > /etc/rc.d/init.d/ccs-auditd << EOF
#!/bin/sh
/usr/lib/ccs/ccs-auditd /dev/null /var/log/tomoyo/reject_log.txt
EOF

chmod +x /etc/rc.d/init.d/ccs-auditd

for i in 2 3 4 5; do
ln -sv ../init.d/ccs-auditd /etc/rc.d/rc${i}.d/S99ccs-auditd; done

mkdir -p /var/log/tomoyo

Configuring TOMOYO to Begin from Learning Mode

Configure TOMOYO Linux to learn system behavior.

echo '<kernel>' > /etc/tomoyo/domain_policy.conf
echo 'use_profile 1' >> /etc/tomoyo/domain_policy.conf

Boot TOMOYO Linux

boot parameter CCS=<name> can be used to load profile /etc/ccs/profile-<name>.conf; without CCS being set or CCS=default, /etc/ccs/profile.conf will be loaded; with CCS=ask to let user select from available policies in /etc/ccs/ at boot time; with CCS=disable to boot as usual Linux without TOMOYO protection.

root=/dev/hda8 ro vga=791 video=neofb:ywrap,mtrr acpi=off CCS=default

Add boot parameter security=tomoyo to enable TOMOYO Linux 2.2.0, as shown below.

root=/dev/hda8 ro vga=791 video=neofb:ywrap,mtrr acpi=off CCS=default security=tomoyo

Configuring Policy to Guard Linux as Needed

Login to the system as root user, and run editpolicy included in TOMOYO Linux tools.

/usr/sbin/ccs-editpolicy

Short Descriptions

ccs-editpolicy	Edits the current policy in /proc/ccs/ or /sys/kernel/security/tomoyo/ directory
ccs-setlevel	Changes the current control level (i.e. writing to /proc/ccs/profile or /sys/kernel/security/tomoyo/profile ) and displays the new control level.
ccs-setprofile	Assigns a profile to domains.
ccs-ccstree	Lists the domainnames of currently running processes belong to and the profile numbers the domains currently assigned to.
ccs-savepolicy	Saves the on-memory policy onto disk.
makesyaoranconf	Generates syaoran.conf, the configuration file for SYAORAN (the Tamper-Proof /dev filesystem). You can use SYAORAN filesystem if you want to run the system with read-only root fs or you want to prevent device files from tampering.
ccs-auditd	Reads from /proc/ccs/grant_log and /proc/ccs/reject_log and writes to the location given in the commandline parameters.
ccs-sortpolicy	Remove duplicated entry from logs written by "ccs-auditd".
ccs-findtemp	Reads domain policy from standard input and checks the existence of pathnames, and dumps the nonexistent pathnames.
ccs-ld-watch	Appends shared libraries to exception policy automatically using "allow_read" directive when the location of shared libraries in /etc/ld.so.cache has changed.
ccs-queryd	Detects policy violation and displays the access request. You can tell the system whether the access request should be granted (or granted and policy should be appended to grant the access request) or rejected after you validate the access request. By running this program while updating packages, you can avoid errors due to insufficient permissions. Never grant access requests unconditionally. The cause of policy violation is not always updating packages, but may by malicious requests by attackers. If you grant access requests caused by malicious requests by attackers, the system gets intruded.
ccs-checkpolicy	Reads policy files from standard input and checks syntaxes.
ccs-init	Loads policy files from /etc/ccs/ directory. Put this program as /sbin/ccs-init , and this program will be invoked automatically when execution of /sbin/init is requested by initrd.
tomoyo-init	Loads policy files from /etc/tomoyo/ directory. Put this program as /sbin/tomoyo-init , and this program will be invoked automatically when execution of /sbin/init is requested by initrd.
