Ubuntu Security :: Using Apparmor To Restrict File Browser?

Sep 21, 2010

I am trying to use apparmor to restrict my file browser, which is Thunar to only let me view the files that are in the home directory and also removable media.I tried following the apparmor sticky with no success.I created the profile and tried editing it and it either started and let me do pretty much everything or did not start at all. Would it be possible for someone to help me step by step to set up a profile for thunar that would only show the home directory and removable media.

Ubuntu Security :: Using Apparmor To Restrict Networking To Specific Ports?

Jun 12, 2011

Perhaps it is my misinterpretation of AppArmor, how can it be configured to restrict TCP or UDP traffic to/from specific ports?

The profile "abstractions/nameservice", under the section "# TCP/UDP network access", doesn't seem to lock the application to port 53. What am I missing? Restriction to specific ports is something that systrace can do so I'd expect nothing less from AppArmor.

Ubuntu Security :: AppArmor Protect Devices And Limit Their Access To The File System?

Nov 9, 2010

This might sound really stupid, so you'll all have to excuse my lacking knowledge. I read that USB attacks get more and more common, like putting in an USB stick with a malicious autorun script on it, and it's game over. Can AppArmor protect devices and limit their access to the file system?

Ubuntu Security :: Recommend AppArmor And Other Security Measures?

Aug 31, 2010

Or do you just use Ubuntu feeling safe enough without them? If you do use AppArmor and other security measures, what do you use them for? Obviously Firefox and Chrome would be two things. But what else?

Ubuntu :: Restrict User To Only Open Browser And Shutdown?

Jun 4, 2010

We just installed Ubuntu latest version (10.04), and what we are willing to do, is restrict the main computer user (none-administrator) to be only able to use web browser (Mozilla Firefox or some other) and that is it. Not allowed to do anything else, apart from this, and shutting down the station. How and where should we apply this type of limitation on a user?

Security :: PKI Certificates And Web Browsers / File That Is Being Imported Into The Browser?

Dec 29, 2010

We have a web server running apache and a custom web app that we log into from a web browser and it ask you to except the certificate and all is well. I now have an user who is using a window server 2008 and he wants to manually import the *.cer file into his browser to be able to login. My question are:

1 - What is the file that is being imported into the browser? *.pem *.crt

2 - I see on our server that we have our certs I believe located in the /etc/pki/tls/certs. The openRADIUS servers that I have created, this is the directory to where it is stored.Is this the typical placement for certs.

3 -If the files is a .cert or *.pem than could I use openssl to convert them to the appropiate *.cer file for IE7

Ubuntu Security :: How To Test That Apparmor Is Working

Oct 9, 2010

So I activated the Firefox profile:

Code:

And restarted Firefox (even rebooted), but it doesn't seem to be working. When I open Firefox I am able to perform a "Save Page As" in locations I shouldn't be able to, like my Desktop or Pictures folder.

The following command says the Firefox process is in enforce mode:

Code:

Of the following lines, the only directory which is "rw" is /Downloads, why am I still able to write to other places?

Code:

OS: Ubuntu 10.10

Can someone with an active Firefox profile do this simple test for me? Click File -> Save As and try to save somewhere the Apparmor profile shouldn't let you, and let me know the results.

Ubuntu Security :: Enabling A New Profile In AppArmor?

Jun 18, 2011

When I enable a new AppArmor profile that is not in the kernel, I've used this command:

Code:
apparmor_parser -r /path/to/profile

But when I recently read the manual for AppArmor, it says to use this command for new profiles:

Code:
apparmor_parser -a /path/to/profile

Have I done something wrong by using -r instead of -a?

Ubuntu Security :: Apparmor Protecting Files From Users

Jan 8, 2011

It seems that AppArmor can't be effectively used to protect read access to files from users (including roots). It is possible to create a profile for, eg, 'cat', but then the users can use 'less'.Is this true? Should use SELinux instead for this?

Ubuntu Security :: AppArmor Enforce Program Without Logging?

Apr 19, 2011

I have a program that generates large amounts of apparmor log messages. I'm happy to enforce restrictions on the program but I really don't want it to fill my log with messages every time it attempts to read a file.

Is there a way to let it enforce restrictions but not log denials?

Ubuntu Security :: Apparmor Profile Deleted / Can't Get It Back

Jun 21, 2011

i was trying to edit my firefox apparmor profile. I used aa-genprof, and accidentally closed the terminal before the program was finished. Firefox wouldn't load properly after that whenever it was enforced. I uninstalled and reinstalled the profiles, but it didn't help.Finally I deleted the files for the profile itself ... now it will not reinstall them..I marked all the apparmor packages for complete removal and then reinstalled them but it will not put the original firefox profile back in.

Ubuntu Security :: Why Isn't Apparmor Firefox Profile Enabled By Default

Ubuntu Security :: Generic AppArmor Profile For Untrusted Application

Sep 3, 2010

I've read and re-read everything I can find about AppArmor, to no avail. On the whole, AppArmor isn't for me. However, rather than give up on it completely, I have an idea: create a profile that I could use as a template for any untrusted application, with the aim of 1) blocking it from network access and 2) blocking it from installing other applications. I've got as far as creating an empty profile:

Code:
# Generic AppArmor Profile for UntrustedApplication
#include <tunables/global>
/usr/sbin/UntrustedApplication {
#include <abstractions/base> }
What do I need to add to make this profile 100% permissive, except for the two exceptions stated above?

Ubuntu Security :: Write Allowed Even AppArmor Forced In Firefox

Feb 28, 2011

I use Ubuntu 10.10 with encrypted home. I'm new with apparmor. My firefox-3.6.13 is now in enforce mode - with standard profile. With this profile it should have write access only to:
owner @{HOME}/Downloads/* rw,

But I can save files (with standard downloadmanager of firefox) e.g. in $HOME itself and I can't find any other rule, which could allow that. I have thing, that ecryptfs workaround just affects the eCryptFS "part of things" and limitations of normal filenames/paths (in mounted ecryptfs) are still possible. Why can firefox write elsewhere as in to ${HOME}/Downloads? I get also this in kern.log (but not by saving a file as wrote above):

Feb 27 05:49:30 duron650 kernel: [ 2284.886631] type=1400 audit(1298782170.190:4: apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1782 profile="/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox-*bin" name="/home/.ecryptfs/hugo/.Private/ECRYPTFS_FNEK_ENCRYPTED.FWY1tHLaOszg1UQTPB2f1Zq7Xu 0xztwk9hVX6-OCUaSGk2nU5ADkJx.rdk--/ECRYPTFS_FNEK_ENCRYPTED.FWY1tHLaOszg1UQTPB2f1Zq7Xu 0xztwk9hVXFlmP1qlJBZ2eq7XFiWljUE--" pid=2209 comm="firefox-bin" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=1000 ouid=0

Why do firefox try to write to it and why do it fail even with #13 workaround?
Feb 27 06:03:23 duron650 kernel: [ 3118.231818] type=1400 audit(1298783003.534:49): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1782 profile="/usr/lib/firefox-3.6.13/firefox-*bin" name="/tmp/.X0-lock" pid=2304 comm="firefox-bin" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
Why try firefox to access X lock?

Ubuntu Security :: Firefox Profile In Apparmor Skipped On Startup

Aug 9, 2011

I have quiet splash disabled so I can see what boot processes are run on startup, and I notice that on every time I boot my computer the Firefox profile is skipped. Here's the message: Code: Skipping profile in /etc/ apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox,I checked /etc/apparmor.d/disable, and see that there is indeed a link to usr.bin.firefox. So I'm wondering how/why it got there. I haven't touched anything in AppArmor since my clean install of Natty.

OpenSUSE :: Apparmor Security Event Notification Error

Nov 13, 2010

Currently the Apparmor program has the notification logs saved to /etc/apparmor/notify.cfg, however, when I try to save the notification after putting my email address in, I get an error saying "Configuration failed for the following operations: Unable to write config changes to /etc/apparmor/notify.cfg"looking inside the folder, I do not see any file named "notify.cfg" BUT I do see so files called reports.conf, logprof.conf, and reports.crontab. I am guessing that the program is asking to save the notification changes to a file that does not exist and in fact one of those three files are the proper ones to use. Well if that is the case then how would I go about fixing this error?

Ubuntu Security :: Use Lucid's Default Firefox AppArmor Profile For Swiftfox?

Also, will Swiftfox 3.6.4 be able to use this same profile? I thought it might not because of the new "Out of process plugins" feature being added.
