.SH DESCRIPTION
Firejail is a SUID sandbox program that reduces the risk of security breaches by
restricting the running environment of untrusted applications using Linux
namespaces, seccomp-bpf and Linux capabilities.
It allows a process and all its descendants to have their own private view of the
globally shared kernel resources, such as the network stack, process table, mount table.
Firejail can work in a SELinux or AppArmor environment,
and it is integrated with Linux Control Groups.
.PP
Written in C with virtually no dependencies, the software runs on any Linux computer with a 3.x kernel version
or newer.
It can sandbox any type of processes: servers, graphical applications, and even user login sessions. 
.PP
Firejail allows the user to manage application security using security profiles.
Each profile defines a set of permissions for a specific application or group
of applications. The software includes security profiles for a number of more common
Linux programs, such as Mozilla Firefox, Chromium, VLC, Transmission etc.

.SH USAGE
Without any options, the sandbox consists of a filesystem build in a new mount namespace,
and new PID and UTS namespaces. IPC, network and user namespaces can be added using the
command line options. The default Firejail filesystem is based on the host filesystem with the main 
system directories mounted read-only. These directories are /etc, /var, /usr, /bin, /sbin, /lib, /lib32, 
/libx32 and /lib64. Only /home and /tmp are writable.
.PP
As it starts up, Firejail tries to find a security profile based on the name of the application.
If an appropriate profile is not found, Firejail will use a default profile.
The default profile is quite restrictive. In case the application doesn't work, use --noprofile option 
to disable it. For more information, please see \fBSECURITY PROFILES\fR section below.
.PP
If a program argument is not specified, Firejail starts /bin/bash shell.
Examples:
.PP
$ firejail [OPTIONS]                # starting a /bin/bash shell
.PP
$ firejail [OPTIONS] firefox        # starting Mozilla Firefox
.PP
# sudo firejail [OPTIONS] /etc/init.d/nginx start

.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-\-
Signal the end of options and disables further option processing.
.TP
\fB\-\-allow-debuggers
Allow tools such as strace and gdb inside the sandbox. This option is only available
when running on Linux kernels 4.8 or newer - a kernel bug in ptrace system call allows a full
bypass of the seccomp filter.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail  --allow-debuggers --profile=/etc/firejail/firefox.profile strace -f firefox
.TP
\fB\-\-allusers
All user home directories are visible inside the sandbox. By default, only current user home directory is visible.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail --allusers
.TP
\fB\-\-apparmor
Enable AppArmor confinement. For more information, please see \fBAPPARMOR\fR section below.
.TP
\fB\-\-appimage

.TP
\fB\-c
Execute command and exit.
.TP
\fB\-\-caps
Linux capabilities is a kernel feature designed to split up the root privilege into a set of distinct privileges.
These privileges can be enabled or disabled independently, thus restricting what a process running
as root can do in the system.

By default root programs run with all capabilities enabled. \-\-caps option disables the following capabilities:
CAP_SYS_MODULE, CAP_SYS_RAWIO,
CAP_SYS_BOOT, CAP_SYS_NICE, CAP_SYS_TTY_CONFIG, CAP_SYSLOG, CAP_MKNOD, CAP_SYS_ADMIN.
The filter is applied to all processes started in the sandbox.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ sudo firejail \-\-caps /etc/init.d/nginx start

.TP
\fB\-\-caps.drop=all
Drop all capabilities for the processes running in the sandbox. This option is recommended for running GUI programs
or any other program that doesn't require root privileges. It is a must-have option for sandboxing untrusted programs
installed from unofficial sources - such as games, Java programs, etc.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-caps.drop=all warzone2100

.TP
\fB\-\-nonewprivs
Sets the NO_NEW_PRIVS prctl.  This ensures that child processes
cannot acquire new privileges using execve(2);  in particular,
this means that calling a suid binary (or one with file capabilities)
does not result in an increase of privilege. This option
is enabled by default if seccomp filter is activated.

.TP
\fB\-\-veth-name=name
Use this name for the interface connected to the bridge for --net=bridge_interface commands, 
instead of the default one.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-net=br0 --veth-name=if0

.TP
\fB\-\-whitelist=dirname_or_filename
Whitelist directory or file. A temporary file system is mounted on the top directory, and the
whitelisted files are mount-binded inside. Modifications to whitelisted files are persistent,
everything else is discarded when the sandbox is closed. The top directory could be 
user home, /dev, /media, /mnt, /opt, /srv, /var, and /tmp.
.br

.br
Symbolic link handling: with the exception of user home, both the link and the real file should be in
the same top directory. For user home, both the link and the real file should be owned by the user.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-noprofile \-\-whitelist=~/.mozilla
.br
$ firejail \-\-whitelist=/tmp/.X11-unix --whitelist=/dev/null

.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ sudo firejail --writable-var


.TP
\fB\-\-x11
Sandbox the application using Xpra, Xephyr or Xorg security extension.
The sandbox will prevents screenshot and keylogger applications started inside the sandbox from accessing
clients running outside the sandbox.
Firejail will try first Xpra, and if Xpra is not installed on the system, it will try to find Xephyr.
If all fails, Firejail will not attempt to use X11 security extension.
.br

.br
Xpra and Xephyr modes require a network namespace to be instantiated in order to disable
X11 abstract Unix socket. If this is not possible, the user can disable the abstract socket
by adding "-nolisten local" on Xorg command line.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-x11 --net=eth0 firefox

.TP
\fB\-\-x11=none
Blacklist /tmp/.X11-unix directory, ${HOME}/.Xauthority and the file specified in ${XAUTHORITY} environment variable.
Remove DISPLAY and XAUTHORITY environment variables.
Stop with error message if X11 abstract socket will be accessible in jail.

.TP
\fB\-\-x11=xephyr
Start Xephyr and attach the sandbox to this server.
Xephyr is a display server implementing the X11 display server protocol.
A network namespace needs to be instantiated in order to deny access to X11 abstract Unix domain socket.
.br

.br
Xephyr runs in a window just like any other X11 application. The default window size is 800x600.
This can be modified in /etc/firejail/firejail.config file.
.br

.br
The recommended way to use this feature is to run a window manager inside the sandbox.
A security profile for OpenBox is provided.
.br

.br
Xephyr is developed by Xorg project. On Debian platforms it is installed with the command \fBsudo apt-get install xserver-xephyr\fR.
This feature is not available when running as root. 
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-x11=xephyr --net=eth0 openbox

.TP
\fB\-\-x11=xorg
Sandbox the application using the untrusted mode implemented by X11 security extension. 
The extension is available in Xorg package
and it is installed by default on most Linux distributions. It provides support for a simple trusted/untrusted 
connection model. Untrusted clients are restricted in certain ways to prevent them from reading window
contents of other clients, stealing input events, etc.

The untrusted mode has several limitations. A lot of regular programs  assume they are a trusted X11 clients
and will crash or lock up when run in untrusted mode. Chromium browser and xterm are two examples.
Firefox and transmission-gtk seem to be working fine.
A network namespace is not required for this option.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-x11=xorg firefox

.TP
\fB\-\-x11=xpra
Start Xpra (http://xpra.org) and attach the sandbox to this server.
Xpra is a persistent remote display server and client for forwarding X11 applications and desktop screens.
A network namespace needs to be instantiated in order to deny access to X11 abstract Unix domain socket.
.br

.br
On Debian platforms Xpra is installed with the command \fBsudo apt-get install xpra\fR.
This feature is not available when running as root.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-x11=xpra --net=eth0 firefox

.TP
\fB\-\-zsh
Use /usr/bin/zsh as default user shell.
.br

.br
Example:
.br
$ firejail \-\-zsh

.SH DESKTOP INTEGRATION
A symbolic link to /usr/bin/firejail under the name of a program, will start the program in Firejail sandbox.
The symbolic link should be placed in the first $PATH position. On most systems, a good place
is /usr/local/bin directory. Example:
.PP
.RS
.br

.br
Make a firefox symlink to /usr/bin/firejail:
.br

.br
$ ln -s /usr/bin/firejail /usr/local/bin/firefox
.br

.br
Verify $PATH
.br

.br
$ which -a firefox
.br
/usr/local/bin/firefox
.br
/usr/bin/firefox
.br

.br
Starting firefox in this moment, automatically invokes “firejail firefox”.
.RE
.br

.br
This works for clicking on desktop environment icons, menus etc. Use "firejail --tree"
to verify the program is sandboxed.
.PP
.RS
.br

.br
.br
$ firejail --tree
.br
1189:netblue:firejail firefox

.SH APPARMOR
.TP
AppArmor support is disabled by default at compile time. Use --enable-apparmor configuration option to enable it:
.br

.br
$ ./configure --prefix=/usr --enable-apparmor
.TP
During software install, a generic AppArmor profile file, firejail-default, is placed in /etc/apparmor.d directory. The profile needs to be loaded into the kernel by running the following command as root:
.br

.br
# aa-enforce firejail-default
.TP
The installed profile tries to replicate some advanced security features inspired by kernel-based Grsecurity:
.br

.br
- Prevent information leakage in /proc and /sys directories. The resulting filesystem is barely enough for running
commands such as "top" and "ps aux".
.br

.br
- Allow running programs only from well-known system paths, such as /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin etc. Running
programs and scripts from user home or other directories writable by the user is not allowed.
.br

.br
- Disable D-Bus. D-Bus has long been a huge security hole, and most programs don't use it anyway.
You should have no problems running Chromium or Firefox.

.TP
To enable AppArmor confinement on top of your current Firejail security features, pass \fB\-\-apparmor\fR flag to Firejail command line. You can also include \fBapparmor\fR command in a Firejail profile file. Example:
.br

.br
$ firejail --apparmor firefox

.SH FILE TRANSFER
These features allow the user to inspect the filesystem container of an existing sandbox
and transfer files from the container to the host filesystem.

.TP
\fB\-\-get=name|pid filename
Retrieve the container file and store it on the host in the current working directory.
The container is specified by name or PID. This option is not available for sandboxes
using --chroot.

.TP
\fB\-\-ls=name|pid dir_or_filename
List container files. The container is specified by name or PID.

.TP
\fB\-\-put=name|pid src-filename dest-filename
Put src-filename in sandbox container.
The container is specified by name or PID. This option is not available for sandboxes
using --chroot.

.TP

.SH TRAFFIC SHAPING
Network bandwidth is an expensive resource shared among all sandboxes running on a system.
Traffic shaping allows the user to increase network performance by controlling
the amount of data that flows into and out of the sandboxes.

Firejail implements a simple rate-limiting shaper based on Linux command tc.
The shaper works at sandbox level, and can be used only for sandboxes configured with new network namespaces.

Set rate-limits:

	$ firejail --bandwidth=name|pid set network download upload

Clear rate-limits:

	$ firejail --bandwidth=name|pid clear network

Status:

	$ firejail --bandwidth=name|pid status

where:
.br
	name - sandbox name
.br
	pid - sandbox pid
.br
	network - network interface as used by \-\-net option
.br
	download - download speed in KB/s (kilobyte per second)
.br
	upload - upload speed in KB/s (kilobyte per second)

Example:
.br
	$ firejail \-\-name=mybrowser \-\-net=eth0 firefox &
.br
	$ firejail \-\-bandwidth=mybrowser set eth0 80 20
.br
	$ firejail \-\-bandwidth=mybrowser status
.br
	$ firejail \-\-bandwidth=mybrowser clear eth0

.SH AUDIT
Audit feature allows the user to point out gaps in security profiles. The
implementation replaces the program to be sandboxed with a test program. By
default, we use faudit program distributed with Firejail. A custom test program
can also be supplied by the user. Examples:

Running the default audit program:
.br
	$ firejail --audit transmission-gtk

Running a custom audit program:
.br
	$ firejail --audit=~/sandbox-test transmission-gtk

In the examples above, the sandbox configures transmission-gtk profile and
starts the test program. The real program, transmission-gtk, will not be
started.

Limitations: audit feature is not implemented for --x11 commands.

.SH MONITORING
Option \-\-list prints a list of all sandboxes. The format
for each process entry is as follows:

	PID:USER:Command

Option \-\-tree prints the tree of processes running in the sandbox. The format
for each process entry is as follows:

	PID:USER:Command

Option \-\-top is similar to the UNIX top command, however it applies only to
sandboxes.

Option \-\-netstats prints network statistics for active sandboxes installing new network namespaces.


Listed below are the available fields (columns) in alphabetical
order for \-\-top and \-\-netstat options:

.TP
Command
Command used to start the sandbox.
.TP
CPU%
CPU usage, the sandbox share of the elapsed CPU time since the
last screen update
.TP
PID
Unique process ID for the task controlling the sandbox.
.TP
Prcs
Number of processes running in sandbox, including the controlling process.
.TP
RES
Resident Memory Size (KiB), sandbox non-swapped physical memory.
It is a sum of the RES values for all processes running in the sandbox.
.TP
RX(KB/s)
Network receive speed.
.TP
SHR
Shared Memory Size (KiB), it reflects memory shared with other
processes. It is a sum of the SHR values for all processes running
in the sandbox, including the controlling process.
.TP
TX(KB/s)
Network transmit speed.
.TP
Uptime
Sandbox running time in hours:minutes:seconds format.
.TP
User
The owner of the sandbox.

.SH SECURITY PROFILES
Several command line options can be passed to the program using
profile files. Firejail chooses the profile file as follows:

1. If a profile file is provided by the user with --profile option, the profile file is loaded.
Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail --profile=/home/netblue/icecat.profile icecat
.br
Reading profile /home/netblue/icecat.profile
.br
[...]
.RE

2. If a profile file with the same name as the application is present in ~/.config/firejail directory or
in /etc/firejail, the profile is loaded. ~/.config/firejail takes precedence over /etc/firejail. Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail icecat
.br
Command name #icecat#
.br
Found icecat profile in /home/netblue/.config/firejail directory
.br
Reading profile /home/netblue/.config/firejail/icecat.profile
.br
[...]
.RE

3. Use default.profile file if the sandbox
is started by a regular user, or server.profile file if the sandbox
is started by root. Firejail looks for these files in ~/.config/firejail directory, followed by /etc/firejail directory.
To disable default profile loading, use --noprofile command option. Example:
.PP
.RS
$ firejail
.br
Reading profile /etc/firejail/default.profile
.br
Parent pid 8553, child pid 8554
.br
Child process initialized
.br
[...] 
.br

.br
$ firejail \-\-noprofile
.br
Parent pid 8553, child pid 8554
.br
Child process initialized
.br
[...]
.RE

See man 5 firejail-profile for profile file syntax information.
	
.SH RESTRICTED SHELL
To configure a restricted shell, replace /bin/bash with /usr/bin/firejail in
/etc/passwd file for each user that needs to be restricted. Alternatively,
you can specify /usr/bin/firejail  in adduser command:

adduser \-\-shell /usr/bin/firejail username

Additional arguments passed to firejail executable upon login are declared in /etc/firejail/login.users file.

.SH EXAMPLES
.TP
\f\firejail
Sandbox a regular /bin/bash session.
.TP
\f\firejail firefox
Start Mozilla Firefox.
.TP
\f\firejail \-\-debug firefox
Debug Firefox sandbox.
.TP
\f\firejail \-\-private firefox
Start Firefox with a new, empty home directory.
.TP
\f\firejail --net=none vlc
Start VLC in an unconnected network namespace.
.TP
\f\firejail \-\-net=eth0 firefox
Start Firefox in a new network namespace. An IP address is
assigned automatically.
.TP
\f\firejail \-\-net=br0 \-\-ip=10.10.20.5 \-\-net=br1 \-\-net=br2
