.Dt MAC_STUB 4
.Sh NAME
.Nm mac_stub
.Nd "MAC policy stub module"
.Sh SYNOPSIS
To compile the sample policy
into your kernel, place the following lines in your kernel
configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "options MAC"
.Cd "options MAC_STUB"
.Ed
.Pp
Alternately, to load the sample module at boot time, place the following line
in your kernel configuration file:
.Bd -ragged -offset indent
.Cd "options MAC"
.Ed
.Pp
and in
.Xr loader.conf 5 :
.Bd -literal -offset indent
mac_stub_load="YES"
.Ed
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm
policy module implements a sample MAC policy that has no effect on
access control in the system.
Unlike
.Xr mac_none 4 ,
each MAC entry point is defined as a
.Dq no-op ,
so the policy module will be entered for each event, but no change
in system behavior should result.
.Ss Label Format
No labels are defined for
.Nm .

.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm
policy module first appeared in
.Fx 5.1
and was developed by the
.Tn TrustedBSD
Project.
.Sh AUTHORS
This software was contributed to the
.Fx
Project by Network Associates Labs,
the Security Research Division of Network Associates
Inc.
under DARPA/SPAWAR contract N66001-01-C-8035
.Pq Dq CBOSS ,
as part of the DARPA CHATS research program.
.Sh BUGS
See
.Xr mac 9
concerning appropriateness for production use.
The
.Tn TrustedBSD
MAC Framework is considered experimental in
.Fx .
.Pp
While the MAC Framework design is intended to support the containment of
the root user, not all attack channels are currently protected by entry
point checks.
As such, MAC Framework policies should not be relied on, in isolation,
to protect against a malicious privileged user.
