Chapter 21. Restricted Shells

Disabled commands in restricted shells

. Running a script or portion of a script in restricted mode disables certain commands that would otherwise be available. This is a security measure intended to limit the privileges of the script user and to minimize possible damage from running the script.

The following commands and actions are disabled:

  • Using cd to change the working directory.

  • Changing the values of the $PATH, $SHELL, $BASH_ENV, or $ENV environmental variables.

  • Reading or changing the $SHELLOPTS, shell environmental options.

  • Output redirection.

  • Invoking commands containing one or more /'s.

  • Invoking exec to substitute a different process for the shell.

  • Various other commands that would enable monkeying with or attempting to subvert the script for an unintended purpose.

  • Getting out of restricted mode within the script.

Example 21-1. Running a script in restricted mode

#!/bin/bash

#  Starting the script with "#!/bin/bash -r"
#+ runs entire script in restricted mode.

echo

echo "Changing directory."
cd /usr/local
echo "Now in `pwd`"
echo "Coming back home."
cd
echo "Now in `pwd`"
echo

# Everything up to here in normal, unrestricted mode.

set -r
# set --restricted    has same effect.
echo "==> Now in restricted mode. <=="

echo
echo

echo "Attempting directory change in restricted mode."
cd ..
echo "Still in `pwd`"

echo
