NAME

runcon - run command with specified security context

SYNOPSIS

runcon CONTEXT COMMAND [args]
runcon [ -c ] [-u USER] [-r ROLE] [-t TYPE] [-l RANGE] COMMAND [args]

DESCRIPTION

Run COMMAND with completely-specified CONTEXT, or with current or transitioned security context modified by one or more of LEVEL, ROLE, TYPE, and USER.

If none of -c, -t, -u, -r, or -l, is specified, the first argument is used as the complete context. Any additional arguments after COMMAND are interpreted as arguments to the command.

Note that only carefully-chosen contexts are likely to successfully run.

Run a program in a different security context. With neither CONTEXT nor COMMAND, print the current security context.

CONTEXT: Complete security context
-c, --compute: compute process transition context before modifying
-t, --type=TYPE: type (for same role as parent)
-u, --user=USER: user identity
-r, --role=ROLE: role
-l, --range=RANGE: levelrange
--help: display this help and exit
--version: output version information and exit
