SANDBOX(7)					       BSD Miscellaneous Information Manual						SANDBOX(7)

NAME
sandbox -- overview of the sandbox facility SYNOPSIS
#include <sandbox.h> DESCRIPTION
The sandbox facility allows applications to voluntarily restrict their access to operating system resources. This safety mechanism is intended to limit potential damage in the event that a vulnerability is exploited. It is not a replacement for other operating system access controls. New processes inherit the sandbox of their parent. Restrictions are generally enforced upon acquisition of operating system resources only. For example, if file system writes are restricted, an application will not be able to open(2) a file for writing. However, if the applica- tion already has a file descriptor opened for writing, it may use that file descriptor regardless of restrictions. SEE ALSO

NAME
rpcsvchost -- hosting environment for DCE/RPC services SYNOPSIS
rpcsvchost [options] service [service ...] DESCRIPTION
rpcsvchost is a very simple environment for hosting DCE/RPC services. It loads DCE/RPC services from the list of plugins given as arguments, binds to an appropriate set of endpoints and listens for protocol requests. If service is not a relative file name, it is assumed to be the name of a dylib located in /usr/lib/rpcsvc. OPTIONS
-debug, -nodebug rpcsvchost will log debug information and may perform extra diagnostic checks. This option is typically only useful for debugging. -endpoints BINDING [,BINDING] This argument specifies additional endpoints that rpcsvchost should attempt to bind. BINDING must be a comma-separated list of DCE/RPC binding strings that include both the protocol sequence and endpoint fields. -help Prints a usage message and exits. -launchd, -nolaunchd Normally, rpcsvchost attempts to bind all the well-known endpoints specified by the service plugins. If there are no well-known endpoints, it will bind new endpoints on all supported protocol sequences. The -launchd option disables this behavior and causes rpcsvchost to check in with launchd(8) to obtain a set of sockets to bind as protocol endpoints. Launchd sockets vended to rpcsvchost must be named with the appropriate DCE/RPC protocol sequence (eg. "ncacn_np"). -sandbox, -nosandbox When this option is specified, the modules loaded by rpcsvchost will be run in a sandbox. rpcsvchost will attempt to intialize the sandbox using the sandbox profile with the name com.apple.<module-name>.sb. See sandbox(7) for an overview of the sandbox facility. -register, -noregister When this option is specified, rpcsvchost attempts to register the loaded services with the DCE/RPC endpoint mapper. -stdout Causes rpcsvchost to print log messages to standard output instead of the system log. -wait-for-debugger Causes rpcsvchost to wait for a debugger to attach after it has loaded and initialized its plugins. This is useful for debugging instances of rpcsvchost that are launched by launchd(8). DIAGNOSTICS
The rpcsvchost utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. SEE ALSO
launchd.plist(5), launchd(8), sandbox(7) HISTORY
The rpcsvchost utility first appeared in Mac OS 10.7. Darwin June 1, 2019 Darwin
