1 | 6.10 The Restricted Shell
|
---|
2 | =========================
|
---|
3 |
|
---|
4 | If Bash is started with the name `rbash', or the `--restricted' or `-r'
|
---|
5 | option is supplied at invocation, the shell becomes restricted. A
|
---|
6 | restricted shell is used to set up an environment more controlled than
|
---|
7 | the standard shell. A restricted shell behaves identically to `bash'
|
---|
8 | with the exception that the following are disallowed or not performed:
|
---|
9 |
|
---|
10 | * Changing directories with the `cd' builtin.
|
---|
11 |
|
---|
12 | * Setting or unsetting the values of the `SHELL', `PATH', `ENV', or
|
---|
13 | `BASH_ENV' variables.
|
---|
14 |
|
---|
15 | * Specifying command names containing slashes.
|
---|
16 |
|
---|
17 | * Specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the `.'
|
---|
18 | builtin command.
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | * Specifying a filename containing a slash as an argument to the `-p'
|
---|
21 | option to the `hash' builtin command.
|
---|
22 |
|
---|
23 | * Importing function definitions from the shell environment at
|
---|
24 | startup.
|
---|
25 |
|
---|
26 | * Parsing the value of `SHELLOPTS' from the shell environment at
|
---|
27 | startup.
|
---|
28 |
|
---|
29 | * Redirecting output using the `>', `>|', `<>', `>&', `&>', and `>>'
|
---|
30 | redirection operators.
|
---|
31 |
|
---|
32 | * Using the `exec' builtin to replace the shell with another command.
|
---|
33 |
|
---|
34 | * Adding or deleting builtin commands with the `-f' and `-d' options
|
---|
35 | to the `enable' builtin.
|
---|
36 |
|
---|
37 | * Using the `enable' builtin command to enable disabled shell
|
---|
38 | builtins.
|
---|
39 |
|
---|
40 | * Specifying the `-p' option to the `command' builtin.
|
---|
41 |
|
---|
42 | * Turning off restricted mode with `set +r' or `set +o restricted'.
|
---|
43 |
|
---|
44 | These restrictions are enforced after any startup files are read.
|
---|
45 |
|
---|
46 | When a command that is found to be a shell script is executed (*note
|
---|
47 | Shell Scripts::), `rbash' turns off any restrictions in the shell
|
---|
48 | spawned to execute the script.
