NAME
firejail.users - Firejail user access database
DESCRIPTION
/etc/firejail/firejail.users lists the users allowed to run firejail
SUID executable. root user is allowed by default, user nobody is
never allowed.
If the user is not allowed to start the sandbox, Firejail will attempt
to run the program without sandboxing it.
If the file is not present in the system, all users are allowed to use
the sandbox.
Example:
$ cat /etc/firejail/firejail.users
dustin
lucas
mike
eleven
Use a text editor to add or remove users from the list. You can also
use firecfg --add-users command. Example:
$ sudo firecfg --add-users dustin lucas mike eleven
By default, running firecfg creates the file and adds the current user
to the list. Example:
$ sudo firecfg
See man 1 firecfg for details.
ALTERNATIVE SOLUTION
An alternative way of restricting user access to firejail executable
is to create a special firejail user group and allow only users in
this group to run the sandbox:
# addgroup firejail
# chown root:firejail /usr/bin/firejail
# chmod 4750 /usr/bin/firejail
