Requirements

Ocaml, Ocamllex, Ocamlyacc >= 4.12.0

Dune >= 3.8.1

Overview

SELinux IFCIL is a SELinux configuration language that extends CIL with information flow requirements. IFCIL configurations are legal CIL configurations and can be compiled using the standard SELinux CIL compiler. Moreover, IFCIL comes with IFCILverif, a tool for verifying that the information flow requirements are met by the configuration.

Compilation

To compile run

dune build

Depending on you system, you may need to run the following before compiling to use the correct version of ocaml

opam switch 4.12.0
eval $(opam env)

How to Verify a IFCIL-NuSMV configuration file

To verify the IFCIL configuration file run

./IFCILverif IFCIL-input-file  

Where

  • IFCILverif : is the name of the executable
  • IFCIL-input-file : is the IFCIL input file, i.e., a SELinux CIL configuration with IFL annotations

Examples

The Examples directory contains the running example from the paper and the real-world tests.

To verify the running example from the paper run

./IFCILtoNuSMV Examples/paper-example.cil

How to Replicate the Experiments about Scalability of IFCILverif

The IFCIL configuration files for the experiments can be found in Examples. There is a single file for every CIL configuration and set of IFL requirements (e.g., cilbase-pipeline is for cilbase CIL configuration and assured pipeline property). To replicate the results about the scalability of IFCILverif, run

./IFCILverif Examples/cilbase-pipeline.cil

The script run_experiments.sh iterates on all the configurations and the considered properties printing the output of IFCILverif and the time of execution measured through the standard Unix command time. Table 1 of the paper lists the configuration, properties and the execution time obtained through the time command.

./run_experiments.sh

The expected results are in expected_results.txt and the execution time should be approximately as follows
