This man page describes the format of the AppArmor configuration files; see \fBapparmor\fR\|(7) for an overview of AppArmor. .PP Some features are not supported on Debian yet: .IP "\fBNetwork Rules\fR" 8 .IX Item "Network Rules" .PD 0 .IP "\fBDBus rules\fR" 8 .IX Item "DBus rules" .IP "\fBUnix socket rules\fR" 8 .IX Item "Unix socket rules" .PD .SH FORMAT .IX Header "FORMAT" AppArmor policy is written in a declarative language, in which the order of rules within a given section or block does not matter. Policy is by convention written so that it is contained in multiple files, but this is not a requirement. It could just as easily be written in a single file. The policy language is compiled to a architecture independent binary format that is loaded into the kernel for enforcement. .PP The base unit of AppArmor confinement is the profile. It contains a set of rules which are enforced when the profile is associated with a running program. The rules within the profile provide a whitelist of different permission that are allowed, along with a few other special rules. .PP The text in AppArmor policy is split into two sections, the preamble and the profile definitions. The preamble must occur at the head of the file and once profile definitions begin, no more preamble rules are allowed (even in files that are included into the profile). When AppArmor policy (set of profiles) is split across multiple files, each file can have its own preamble section, which may be the same or different from other files preamble. Files included within a profile section can not have a preamble section. .PP The following is a BNF-style description of AppArmor policy configuration files; see below for an example AppArmor policy file. AppArmor configuration files are line-oriented; \fB#\fR introduces a comment, similar to shell scripting languages. The exception to this rule is that \fB#include\fR will \fIinclude\fR the contents of a file inline to the policy; this behaviour is modelled after \fBcpp\fR\|(1). .Sp .RS 4 \&\fBPROFILE FILE\fR = ( [ \fIPREAMBLE\fR ] [ \fIPROFILE\fR ] )* .Sp \&\fBPREAMBLE\fR = ( \fICOMMENT\fR | \fIVARIABLE ASSIGNMENT\fR | \fIALIAS RULE\fR | \fIINCLUDE\fR | \fIABI\fR )* Variable assignment and alias rules must come before the profile. .Sp \&\fBVARIABLE ASSIGNMENT\fR = \fIVARIABLE\fR ('=' | '+=') (space separated values) .Sp \&\fBVARIABLE\fR = '@{' \fIALPHA\fR [ ( \fIALPHANUMERIC\fR | '_' ) ... ] '}' .Sp \&\fBALIAS RULE\fR = 'alias' \fIABS PATH\fR '\->' \fIREWRITTEN ABS PATH\fR ',' .Sp \&\fBINCLUDE\fR = ( '#include' | 'include' ) [ 'if exists' ] ( \fIABS PATH\fR | \fIMAGIC PATH\fR ) .Sp \&\fBABI\fR = ( 'abi' ) ( \fIABS PATH\fR | \fIMAGIC PATH\fR ) ',' .Sp \&\fBABS PATH\fR = '"' path '"' (the path is passed to \fBopen\fR\|(2)) .Sp \&\fBMAGIC PATH\fR = '<' relative path '>' The path is relative to \fI/etc/apparmor.d/\fR. .Sp \&\fBCOMMENT\fR = '#' \fITEXT\fR [ '\er' ] '\en' .Sp \&\fBTEXT\fR = any characters .Sp \&\fBPROFILE\fR = ( \fIPROFILE HEAD\fR ) [ \fIATTACHMENT SPECIFICATION\fR ] [ \fIPROFILE FLAG CONDS\fR ] '{' ( \fIRULES\fR )* '}' .Sp \&\fBPROFILE HEAD\fR = [ 'profile' ] \fIFILEGLOB\fR | 'profile' \fIPROFILE NAME\fR .Sp \&\fBPROFILE NAME\fR ( \fIUNQUOTED PROFILE NAME\fR | \fIQUOTED PROFILE NAME\fR ) .Sp \&\fBQUOTED PROFILE NAME\fR = '"' \fIUNQUOTED PROFILE NAME\fR '"' .Sp \&\fBUNQUOTED PROFILE NAME\fR = (must start with alphanumeric character (after variable expansion), or '/' \fBAARE\fR have special meanings; see below.

There may be any number of subprofiles (aka child profiles) in a profile, limited only by kernel memory. Subprofile names are limited to 974 characters. Child profiles can be used to confine an application in a special way, or when you want the child to be unconfined on the system, but confined when called from the parent. Hats are a special child profile that can be used with the \&\fBaa_change_hat\fR\|(2) API call. Applications written or modified to use \&\fBaa_change_hat\fR\|(2) can take advantage of subprofiles to run under different confinements, dependent on program logic. Several \fBaa_change_hat\fR\|(2)\-aware applications exist, including an Apache module, \fBmod_apparmor\fR\|(5); a PAM module, pam_apparmor; and a Tomcat valve, tomcat_apparmor. Applications written or modified to use \fBchange_profile\fR\|(2) transition permanently to the specified profile. libvirt is one such application. .SS "Profile Head" .IX Subsection "Profile Head" The profile head consists of a required name that is unique and optional attachment conditionals and control flags. .PP \fIName\fR .IX Subsection "Name" .PP The name of the profile is its identifier. It is what is displayed during introspection (eg. ps \-Z), and defines how the profile is referenced by policy rules for any policy interaction via ipc or domain changes. It is recommended that the name be kept short and have meaning for the application it is being applied eg. \fIfirefox\fR for the firefox web browser or its functional role eg. log_admin. .PP If the name is an applications full absolute path name eg. \fI/usr/bin/firefox\fR and an exec attachment conditional is not specified the name is also used as the profile's exec attachment conditional. This use however has been deprecated and is discouraged as it makes for long names that can make profile rules difficult to understand, and may not be fully displayed by some introspection tools. .PP \fIAttachment Conditionals\fR .IX Subsection "Attachment Conditionals" .PP The attachment conditionals are used during profile changes to determine whether a profile is a match for the proposed profile transition. The attachment conditionals are optional, how and when they are applied is determined by the specific condition(s) used. .PP When attachment conditionals are used, the attachment conditionals for all profiles in the namespace will be evaluated. The profile with the set of attachments that result in the best match will become the new profile after a transition operation. Attachments that don't match will result in the profile not being available for transition. .PP If no conditionals are specified the profile will only be used if a transition explicitly specifies the profile name. .PP Exec Attachment Conditional .IX Subsection "Exec Attachment Conditional" .PP The exec attachment conditional governs how closely the profile matches an executable program. This conditional is only used during an exec operation when the matching exec rule specifies either a \fBpx\fR or \&\fBcx\fR (or their derivatives) transition type. The exec attachment conditional will also be used by tasks that are \fIunconfined\fR as they use a \fBpix\fR transition rule. .PP If there are no attachment matches then it is up to the exec rule to determine what happens (fail or a fallback option). .PP Note: see profile \fIName\fR for information around using the profile name as an attachment conditional. .PP Exec attachment conditionals can contain variable names and pattern matching. They use a longest left match heuristic to deterime the winner in the case of multiple matches at run time. The exact implementation of this resolution is kernel specific and has improved over time, while retaining backwards compatibility. If the heuristic can not determine a winner between multiple matches the exec will be denied. .PP Extended Attributes Attachment Conditional .IX Subsection "Extended Attributes Attachment Conditional" .PP AppArmor profiles have the ability to target files based on their \fBxattr\fR\|(7) values in addition to their path. For example, the following profile matches files in /usr/bin with the attribute "security.apparmor" and value "trusted": .PP .Vb 3 \& /usr/bin/* xattrs(security.apparmor="trusted") { \& # ... \& } .Ve .PP See \fBapparmor_xattrs\fR\|(7) for further details. .PP \fIFlags\fR .IX Subsection "Flags" .PP The profile flags allow modifying the behavior of the profile. If a profile flag is specified it takes priority over any conflicting flags that have been specified by rules in the profile body. .PP Profile Mode .IX Subsection "Profile Mode" .PP The profile mode allow controlling the enforcement behavior of the profile rules. .PP If no mode is specified the profile defaults to \fIenforce\fR mode. .IP "\fBenforce\fR For a given action, if the profile rules do not grant permission the action will be denied, with an \fIEACCES\fR or \fIEPERM\fR error code returned to userspace, and the violation will be logged with a tag of the access being \fBDENIED\fR." 8 .IX Item "enforce For a given action, if the profile rules do not grant permission the action will be denied, with an EACCES or EPERM error code returned to userspace, and the violation will be logged with a tag of the access being DENIED." .PD 0 .IP "\fBkill\fR This is a variant of enforce mode where in addition to returning \fIEACCES\fR or \fIEPERM\fR for a violation, the task is also sent a signal to kill it." 8 .IX Item "kill This is a variant of enforce mode where in addition to returning EACCES or EPERM for a violation, the task is also sent a signal to kill it." .IP "\fBcomplain\fR For a given action, if the profile rules do not grant permission the action will be allowed, but the violation will be logged with a tag of the access being \fBALLOWED\fR." 8 .IX Item "complain For a given action, if the profile rules do not grant permission the action will be allowed, but the violation will be logged with a tag of the access being ALLOWED." .IP "\fBunconfined\fR This mode allows a task confined by the profile to behave as though they are \fIunconfined\fR.

The syntax of mount rules in AppArmor is based on the \fBmount\fR\|(8) command syntax. Mount rules must contain one of the mount, remount or umount keywords, but all mount conditions are optional. Unspecified optional conditionals are assumed to match all entries (eg, not specifying fstype means all fstypes are matched). Due to the complexity of the mount command and how options may be specified, AppArmor allows specifying conditionals three different ways: .IP 1. 4 If a conditional is specified using '=', then the rule only grants permission for mounts matching the exactly specified options. For example, an AppArmor policy with the following rule: .Sp .Vb 1 \& mount options=ro /dev/foo \-E /mnt/, .Ve .Sp Would match: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .Sp but not either of these: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro,atime /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o rw /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .IP 2. 4 If a conditional is specified using 'in', then the rule grants permission for mounts matching any combination of the specified options. For example, if an AppArmor policy has the following rule: .Sp .Vb 1 \& mount options in (ro,atime) /dev/foo \-> /mnt/, .Ve .Sp all of these mount commands will match: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o ro,atime /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o atime /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .Sp but none of these will: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro,sync /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o ro,atime,sync /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o rw /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o rw,noatime /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .IP 3. 4 If multiple conditionals are specified in a single mount rule, then the rule grants permission for each set of options. This provides a shorthand when writing mount rules which might help to logically break up a conditional. For example, if an AppArmor policy has the following rule: .Sp .Vb 1 \& mount options=ro options=atime .Ve .Sp both of these mount commands will match: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro /dev/foo /mnt \& \& $ mount \-o atime /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .Sp but this one will not: .Sp .Vb 1 \& $ mount \-o ro,atime /dev/foo /mnt .Ve .PP Note that separate mount rules are distinct and the options do not accumulate. For example, these AppArmor mount rules: .PP .Vb 1 \& mount options=ro, \& \& mount options=atime, .Ve .PP are not equivalent to either of these mount rules: .PP .Vb 1 \& mount options=(ro,atime), \& \& mount options in (ro,atime), .Ve .PP To help clarify the flexibility and complexity of mount rules, here are some example rules with accompanying matching commands: .IP \fBmount,\fR 4 .IX Item "mount," the 'mount' rule without any conditionals is the most generic and allows any mount.

The syntax of 'pivot_root' rules in AppArmor is based on the \&\fBpivot_root\fR\|(2) system call parameters with the notable exception that the ordering is reversed. The path corresponding to the put_old parameter of \&\fBpivot_root\fR\|(2) is optionally specified in the 'pivot_root' rule using the \&'oldroot=' prefix. .PP AppArmor 'pivot_root' rules can specify a profile transition to occur during the \fBpivot_root\fR\|(2) system call. Note that AppArmor will only transition the process calling \fBpivot_root\fR\|(2) to the new profile. .PP The paths specified in 'pivot_root' rules must end with '/' since they are directories. .PP Here are some example 'pivot_root' rules: .PP .Vb 2 \& # Allow any pivot \& pivot_root, \& \& # Allow pivoting to any new root directory and putting the old root \& # directory at /mnt/root/old/ \& pivot_root oldroot=/mnt/root/old/, \& \& # Allow pivoting the root directory to /mnt/root/ \& pivot_root /mnt/root/, \& \& # Allow pivoting to /mnt/root/ and putting the old root directory at \& # /mnt/root/old/ \& pivot_root oldroot=/mnt/root/old/ /mnt/root/, \& \& # Allow pivoting to /mnt/root/, putting the old root directory at \& # /mnt/root/old/ and transition to the /mnt/root/sbin/init profile \& pivot_root oldroot=/mnt/root/old/ /mnt/root/ \-> /mnt/root/sbin/init, .Ve .SS "PTrace rules" .IX Subsection "PTrace rules" AppArmor supports mediation of \fBptrace\fR\|(2).

Unix domain sockets with file system paths are mediated via file access rules. .PP Abstract unix domain sockets is a nonportable Linux extension of unix domain sockets, see \fBunix\fR\|(7) for more information. .PP \fIUnix socket address paths\fR .IX Subsection "Unix socket address paths" .PP The sun_path component (aka the socket address) of a unix domain socket is specified by the .PP .Vb 1 \& addr= .Ve .PP conditional. If an address conditional is not specified as part of a rule then the rule matches both abstract and anonymous sockets. .PP In apparmor the address of an abstract unix domain socket begins with the \fI@\fR character, similar to how they are reported (as paths) by netstat \-x. The address then follows and may contain pattern matching and any characters including the null character. In apparmor null characters must be specified by using an escape sequence \fI\e000\fR or \&\fI\ex00\fR. The pattern matching is the same as is used by file path matching so * will not match \fI/\fR even though it has no special meaning with in an abstract socket name. Eg. .PP .Vb 1 \& unix addr=@*, .Ve .PP Autobound unix domain sockets have a unix sun_path assigned to them by the kernel, as such specifying a policy based address is not possible. The autobinding of sockets can be controlled by specifying the special \&\fIauto\fR keyword. Eg. .PP .Vb 1 \& unix addr=auto, .Ve .PP To indicate that the rule only applies to auto binding of unix domain sockets. It is important to note this only applies to the \fIbind\fR permission as once the socket is bound to an address it is indistinguishable from a socket that have an addr bound with a specified name. When the \fIauto\fR keyword is used with other permissions or as part of a peer addr it will be replaced with a pattern that can match an autobound socket. Eg. For some kernels .PP .Vb 1 \& unix rw addr=auto, .Ve .PP is transformed to .PP .Vb 1 \& unix rw addr=@[a\-f0\-9][a\-f0\-9][a\-f0\-9][a\-f0\-9][a\-f0\-9], .Ve .PP It is important to note, this pattern may match abstract sockets that were not autobound but have an addr that fits what is generated by the kernel when autobinding a socket. .PP Anonymous unix domain sockets have no sun_path associated with the socket address, however it can be specified with the special \fInone\fR keyword to indicate the rule only applies to anonymous unix domain sockets. Eg. .PP .Vb 1 \& unix addr=none, .Ve .PP If the address component of a rule is not specified then the rule applies to autobind, abstract and anonymous sockets. .PP \fIUnix socket permissions\fR .IX Subsection "Unix socket permissions" .PP Unix domain socket rules are accumulated so that the granted unix socket permissions are the union of all the listed unix rule permissions. .PP Unix domain socket rules are broad and general and become more restrictive as further information is specified. Policy may be specified down to the socket address (aka sun_path) and label level. The content of the communication is not examined. .PP Unix socket rule permissions are implied when a rule does not explicitly state an access list. By default if a rule does not have an access list all permissions that are compatible with the specified set of local and peer conditionals are implied. .PP The create, bind, listen, shutdown, getattr, setattr, getopt, and setopt permissions are local socket permissions. They are only applied to the local socket and can't be specified in rules that have a peer component. The accept permission applies to the combination of a local and peer socket. The connect, send, and receive permissions are peer socket permissions. .PP Only the peer socket permissions will be applied to rules that don't specify permissions and contain a peer component. .PP \fIExample Unix domain socket rules:\fR .IX Subsection "Example Unix domain socket rules:" .PP .Vb 2 \& # Allow all permissions to unix sockets \& unix, \& \& # Explicitly allow all unix permissions \& unix (create, listen, accept, connect, send, receive, getattr, setattr, setopt, getopt), \& \& # Explicitly deny unix socket access \& deny unix, \& \& # Allow create and use of abstract and anonymous sockets for profile_name \& unix peer=(label=@{profile_name}), \& \& # Allow receiving via unix sockets from unconfined \& unix (receive) peer=(label=unconfined), \& \& # Allow getattr and shutdown on anonymous sockets \& unix (getattr, shutdown) addr=none, \& \& # Allow SOCK_STREAM connect, receive and send on an abstract socket @bar \& # with peer running under profile \*(Aq/foo\*(Aq \& unix (connect, receive, send) type=stream peer=(label=/foo,addr="@bar"), \& \& # Allow accepting connections from and receiving from peer running under \& # profile \*(Aq/bar\*(Aq on abstract socket \*(Aq@foo\*(Aq \& unix (accept, receive) addr=@foo peer=(label=/bar), .Ve .PP \fIAbstract unix domain sockets autobind\fR .IX Subsection "Abstract unix domain sockets autobind" .PP Abstract unix domain sockets can autobind to an address. The autobind address is a unique 5 digit string of decimal numbers, eg. \f(CW@00001\fR. There is nothing that prevents a task from manually binding to addresses with a similar pattern so it is impossible to reliably identify autobind addresses from a regular address. .PP \fIInteraction of network rules and fine grained unix domain socket rules\fR .IX Subsection "Interaction of network rules and fine grained unix domain socket rules" .PP The coarse grained networking rules can be used to control unix domain sockets as well. When fine grained unix domain socket mediation is available the coarse grained network rule is mapped into the equivalent unix socket rule. .PP E.G. .PP .Vb 1 \& network unix, => unix, \& \& network unix stream, => unix stream, .Ve .PP Fine grained mediation rules however can not be losslessly converted back to the coarse grained network rule; e.g. .PP .Vb 1 \& unix bind addr=@example, .Ve .PP Has no exact match under coarse grained network rules, the closest match is the much wider permission rule of .PP .Vb 1 \& network unix, .Ve .SS "change_profile rules" .IX Subsection "change_profile rules" AppArmor supports self directed profile transitions via the change_profile api. Change_profile rules control which permissions for which profiles a confined task can transition to. The profile name can contain apparmor pattern matching to specify different profiles. .PP .Vb 1 \& change_profile \-> **, .Ve .PP The change_profile api allows the transition to be delayed until when a task executes another application. If an exec rule transition is specified for the application and the change_profile api is used to make a transition at exec time, the transition specified by the change_profile api takes precedence. .PP The Change_profile permission can restrict which profiles can be transitioned to based off of the executable name by specifying the exec condition. .PP .Vb 1 \& change_profile /bin/bash \-> new_profile, .Ve .PP The restricting of the transition profile to a given executable at exec time is only useful when then current task is allowed to make dynamic decisions about what confinement should be, but the decision set needs to be controlled. A list of profiles or multiple rules can be used to specify the profiles in the set. Eg. .PP .Vb 1 \& change_profile /bin/bash \-> {new_profile1,new_profile2,new_profile3}, .Ve .PP An exec rule can be used to specify a transition for the executable, if the transition should be allowed even if the change_profile api has not been used to select a transition for those available in the change_profile rule set. Eg. .PP .Vb 2 \& /bin/bash Px \-> new_profile1, \& change_profile /bin/bash \-> {new_profile1,new_profile2,new_profile3}, .Ve .PP The exec mode dictates whether or not the Linux Kernel's \fBunsafe_exec\fR routines should be used to scrub the environment, similar to setuid programs. (See \fBld.so\fR\|(8) for some information on setuid/setgid environment scrubbing.) The \&\fBsafe\fR mode sets up environment scrubbing to occur when the new application is executed and \fBunsafe\fR mode disables AppArmor's requirement for environment scrubbing (the kernel and/or libc may still require environment scrubbing). An exec mode can only be specified when an exec condition is present. .PP .Vb 1 \& change_profile safe /bin/bash \-> new_profile, .Ve .PP Not all kernels support \fBsafe\fR mode and the parser will downgrade rules to \&\fBunsafe\fR mode in that situation. If no exec mode is specified, the default is \&\fBsafe\fR mode in kernels that support it. .SS "rlimit rules" .IX Subsection "rlimit rules" AppArmor can set and control the resource limits associated with a profile as described in the \fBsetrlimit\fR\|(2) man page. .PP The AppArmor rlimit controls allow setting of limits and restricting changes of them and these actions can be audited. Enforcement of the set limits is handled by the standard kernel enforcement mechanism for rlimits and will not result in an audited apparmor message if the limit is enforced. .PP If a profile does not have an rlimit rule associated with a given rlimit then the rlimit is left alone and regular access, including changing the limit, is allowed. However if the profile sets an rlimit then the current limit is checked and if greater than the limit specified in the rule it will be changed to the specified limit. .PP AppArmor rlimit rules control the hard limit of an application and ensure that if the hard limit is lowered that the soft limit does not exceed the hard limit value. .PP Eg. .PP .Vb 3 \& set rlimit data <= 100M, \& set rlimit nproc <= 10, \& set rlimit nice <= 5, .Ve .SS Variables .IX Subsection "Variables" AppArmor's policy language allows embedding variables into file rules to enable easier configuration for some common (and pervasive) setups. Variables may have multiple values assigned, but any variable assignments must be made before the start of the profile. .PP The parser will automatically expand variables to include all values that they have been assigned; it is an error to reference a variable without setting at least one value. You can use empty quotes ("") to explicitly add an empty value. .PP At the time of this writing, the following variables are defined in the provided AppArmor policy: .PP .Vb 10 \& @{HOME} \& @{HOMEDIRS} \& @{multiarch} \& @{pid} \& @{pids} \& @{PROC} \& @{securityfs} \& @{apparmorfs} \& @{sys} \& @{tid} \& @{run} \& @{XDG_DESKTOP_DIR} \& @{XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR} \& @{XDG_TEMPLATES_DIR} \& @{XDG_PUBLICSHARE_DIR} \& @{XDG_DOCUMENTS_DIR} \& @{XDG_MUSIC_DIR} \& @{XDG_PICTURES_DIR} \& @{XDG_VIDEOS_DIR} .Ve .PP These are defined in files in \fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables\fR and are used in many of the abstractions described later. .PP You may also add files in \fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/home.d\fR for site-specific customization of \fB@{HOMEDIRS}\fR, \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/multiarch.d\fR for \fB@{multiarch}\fR and \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/xdg\-user\-dirs.d\fR for \fB@{XDG_*}\fR. .PP The special \fB@{profile_name}\fR variable is set to the profile name and may be used in all policy. .SS "Alias rules" .IX Subsection "Alias rules" AppArmor also provides alias rules for remapping paths for site-specific layouts. They are an alternative form of path rewriting to using variables, and are done after variable resolution. Alias rules must occur within the preamble of the profile. System-wide aliases are found in \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/alias\fR, which is included by \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/global\fR. \fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/global\fR is typically included at the beginning of an AppArmor profile. .SS Globbing .IX Subsection "Globbing" File resources may be specified with a globbing syntax similar to that used by popular shells, such as \fBcsh\fR\|(1), \fBbash\fR\|(1), \fBzsh\fR\|(1). .IP \fB*\fR 4 .IX Item "*" can substitute for any number of characters, excepting '/' .IP \fB**\fR 4 .IX Item "**" can substitute for any number of characters, including '/' .IP \fB?\fR 4 .IX Item "?" can substitute for any single character excepting '/' .IP \fB[abc]\fR 4 .IX Item "[abc]" will substitute for the single character a, b, or c .IP \fB[a\-c]\fR 4 .IX Item "[a-c]" will substitute for the single character a, b, or c .IP \fB[^a\-c]\fR 4 .IX Item "[^a-c]" will substitute for any single character not matching a, b or c .IP \fB{ab,cd}\fR 4 .IX Item "{ab,cd}" will expand to one rule to match ab, one rule to match cd .PP When AppArmor looks up a directory the pathname being looked up will end with a slash (e.g., \fI/var/tmp/\fR); otherwise it will not end with a slash. Only rules that match a trailing slash will match directories. Some examples, none matching the \fI/tmp/\fR directory itself, are: .IP \fB/tmp/*\fR 4 .IX Item "/tmp/*" Files directly in \fI/tmp\fR. .IP \fB/tmp/*/\fR 4 .IX Item "/tmp/*/" Directories directly in \fI/tmp\fR. .IP \fB/tmp/**\fR 4 .IX Item "/tmp/**" Files and directories anywhere underneath \fI/tmp\fR. .IP \fB/tmp/**/\fR 4 .IX Item "/tmp/**/" Directories anywhere underneath \fI/tmp\fR. .SS "Rule Qualifiers" .IX Subsection "Rule Qualifiers" There are several rule qualifiers that can be applied to permission rules. Rule qualifiers can modify the rule and/or permissions within the rule. .IP \fBallow\fR 4 .IX Item "allow" Specifies that permissions requests that match the rule are allowed. This is the default value for rules and does not need to be specified. Conflicts with the \fIdeny\fR qualifier. .IP \fBaudit\fR 4 .IX Item "audit" Specifies that permissions requests that match the rule should be recorded to the audit log. .IP \fBdeny\fR 4 .IX Item "deny" Specifies that permissions requests that match the rule should be denied without logging. Can be combined with 'audit' to enable logging. Conflicts with the \fIallow\fR qualifier. .IP \fBowner\fR 4 .IX Item "owner" Specifies that the task must have the same euid/fsuid as the object being referenced by the permission check. .PP \fIQualifier Blocks\fR .IX Subsection "Qualifier Blocks" .PP Rule Qualifiers can be applied to multiple rules at a time by grouping the rules into a rule block. .PP .Vb 4 \& audit { \& /foo r, \& network, \& } .Ve .SS "#include mechanism" .IX Subsection "#include mechanism" AppArmor provides an easy abstraction mechanism to group common access requirements; this abstraction is an extremely flexible way to grant site-specific rights and makes writing new AppArmor profiles very simple by assembling the needed building blocks for any given program. .PP The use of '#include' is modelled directly after \fBcpp\fR\|(1); its use will replace the '#include' statement with the specified file's contents. The leading '#' is optional, and the '#include' keyword can be followed by an option conditional 'if exists' that specifies profile compilation should continue if the specified file or directory is not found. .PP \&\fB#include "/absolute/path"\fR specifies that \fI/absolute/path\fR should be used. \fB#include "relative/path"\fR specifies that \fIrelative/path\fR should be used, where the path is relative to the current working directory. \&\fB#include \fR is the most common usage; it will load \&\fImagic/path\fR relative to a directory specified to \fBapparmor_parser\fR\|(8). \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/\fR is the AppArmor default. .PP The supplied AppArmor profiles follow several conventions; the abstractions stored in \fI/etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/\fR are some large clusters that are used in most profiles. What follows are short descriptions of how some of the abstractions are used. .IP \fIabstractions/audio\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/audio" Includes accesses to device files used for audio applications. .IP \fIabstractions/authentication\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/authentication" Includes access to files and services typically necessary for services that perform user authentication. .IP \fIabstractions/base\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/base" Includes files that should be readable and writable in all profiles. .IP \fIabstractions/bash\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/bash" Includes many files used by bash; useful for interactive shells and programs that call \fBsystem\fR\|(3). .IP \fIabstractions/consoles\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/consoles" Includes read and write access to the device files controlling the virtual console, \fBsshd\fR\|(8), \fBxterm\fR\|(1), etc. This abstraction is needed for many programs that interact with users. .IP \fIabstractions/fonts\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/fonts" Includes access to fonts and the font libraries. .IP \fIabstractions/gnome\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/gnome" Includes read and write access to GNOME configuration files, as well as read access to GNOME libraries. .IP \fIabstractions/kde\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/kde" Includes read and write access to KDE configuration files, as well as read access to KDE libraries. .IP \fIabstractions/kerberosclient\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/kerberosclient" Includes file access rules needed for common kerberos clients. .IP \fIabstractions/nameservice\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/nameservice" Includes file rules to allow DNS, LDAP, NIS, SMB, user and group password databases, services, and protocols lookups. .IP \fIabstractions/perl\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/perl" Includes read access to perl modules. .IP \fIabstractions/user\-download\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/user-download" .PD 0 .IP \fIabstractions/user\-mail\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/user-mail" .IP \fIabstractions/user\-manpages\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/user-manpages" .IP \fIabstractions/user\-tmp\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/user-tmp" .IP \fIabstractions/user\-write\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/user-write" .PD Some profiles for typical "user" programs will use these include files to describe rights that users have in the system. .IP \fIabstractions/wutmp\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/wutmp" Includes write access to files used to maintain \fBwtmp\fR\|(5) and \fButmp\fR\|(5) databases, used with the w(1) and associated commands. .IP \fIabstractions/X\fR 4 .IX Item "abstractions/X" Includes read access to libraries, configuration files, X authentication files, and the X socket. .PP Some of the abstractions rely on variables that are set in files in the \&\fI/etc/apparmor.d/tunables/\fR directory. These variables are currently \&\fB@{HOME}\fR and \fB@{HOMEDIRS}\fR. Variables cannot be set in profile scope; they can only be set before the profile. Therefore, any profiles that use abstractions should either \fB#include \fR or otherwise ensure that \fB@{HOME}\fR and \fB@{HOMEDIRS}\fR are set before starting the profile definition. The \fBaa\-autodep\fR\|(8) and \fBaa\-genprof\fR\|(8) utilities will automatically emit \fB#include \fR in generated profiles. .SS "Feature ABI" .IX Subsection "Feature ABI" The feature abi tells AppArmor which feature set the policy was developed under. This is important to ensure that kernels with a different feature set don't enforce features that the policy doesn't support, which can result in unexpected application failures. .PP When policy is compiled both the kernel feature abi and policy feature abi are consulted to build a policy that will work for the system's kernel. .PP If the kernel supports a feature not supported by the policy then policy will be built so that the kernel does NOT enforce that feature. .PP If the policy supports a feature not supported by the kernel the compile may downgrade the rule with the feature to something the kernel supports, drop the rule completely, or fail the compile. .PP If the policy abi is specified as \fBkernel\fR then the running kernel's abi will be used. This should never be used in shipped policy as it can cause system breakage when a new kernel is installed. .PP \fIABI compatibility with AppArmor 2.x\fR .IX Subsection "ABI compatibility with AppArmor 2.x" .PP AppArmor 3 remains compatible with AppArmor 2.x by detecting when a profile does not have a feature ABI specified. In this case the policy compile will either apply the pinned feature ABI as specified by the config file or the command line, or if neither of those are applied by using a default feature ABI. .PP It is important to note that the default feature ABI does not support new features added in AppArmor 3 or later. .SH EXAMPLE .IX Header "EXAMPLE" An example AppArmor profile: .PP .Vb 2 \& # which feature abi the policy was developed with \& abi , \& \& # a variable definition in the preamble \& @{HOME} = /home/*/ /root/ \& \& # a comment about foo. \& /usr/bin/foo { \& /bin/mount ux, \& /dev/{,u}random r, \& /etc/ld.so.cache r, \& /etc/foo.conf r, \& /etc/foo/* r, \& /lib/ld\-*.so* rmix, \& /lib/lib*.so* r, \& /proc/[0\-9]** r, \& /usr/lib/** r, \& /tmp/foo.pid wr, \& /tmp/foo.* lrw, \& /@{HOME}/.foo_file rw, \& /usr/bin/baz Cx \-> baz, \& \& # a comment about foo\*(Aqs hat (subprofile), bar. \& ^bar { \& /lib/ld\-*.so* rmix, \& /usr/bin/bar rmix, \& /var/spool/* rwl, \& } \& \& # a comment about foo\*(Aqs subprofile, baz. \& profile baz { \& #include \& owner /proc/[0\-9]*/stat r, \& /bin/bash ixr, \& /var/lib/baz/ r, \& owner /var/lib/baz/* rw, \& } \& } .Ve .SH FILES .IX Header "FILES" .IP \fI/etc/init.d/boot.apparmor\fR 4 .IX Item "/etc/init.d/boot.apparmor" .PD 0 .IP \fI/etc/apparmor.d/\fR 4 .IX Item "/etc/apparmor.d/" .PD .SH "KNOWN BUGS" .IX Header "KNOWN BUGS" .IP \(bu 4 Mount options support the use of pattern matching but mount flags are not correctly intersected against specified patterns.
