## Basic Information
|
|
|
|
**AppArmor** is a kernel enhancement to confine **programs** to a **limited** set of **resources** with **per-program profiles**. Profiles can **allow** **capabilities** like network access, raw socket access, and the permission to read, write, or execute files on matching paths.
|
|
|
|
It's a Mandatory Access Control or **MAC** that binds **access control** attributes **to programs rather than to users**.\
|
|
AppArmor confinement is provided via **profiles loaded into the kernel**, typically on boot.\
|
|
AppArmor profiles can be in one of **two modes**:
|
|
|
|
* **Enforcement**: Profiles loaded in enforcement mode will result in **enforcement of the policy** defined in the profile **as well as reporting** policy violation attempts (either via syslog or auditd).
|
|
* **Complain**: Profiles in complain mode **will not enforce policy** but instead **report** policy **violation** attempts.
|
|
|
|
AppArmor differs from some other MAC systems on Linux: it is **path-based**, it allows mixing of enforcement and complain mode profiles, it uses include files to ease development, and it has a far lower barrier to entry than other popular MAC systems.
|
|
|
|
### Parts of AppArmor
|
|
|
|
* **Kernel module**: Does the actual work
|
|
* **Policies**: Defines the behaviour and containment
|
|
* **Parser**: Loads the policies into kernel
|
|
* **Utilities**: Usermode programs to interact with apparmor
|
|
|
|
### Profiles path
|
|
|
|
Apparmor profiles are usually saved in _**/etc/apparmor.d/**_\
|
|
With `sudo aa-status` you will be able to list the binaries that are restricted by some profile. If you can change the char "/" for a dot of the path of each listed binary and you will obtain the name of the apparmor profile inside the mentioned folder.
|
|
|
|
For example, a **apparmor** profile for _/usr/bin/man_ will be located in _/etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.man_
|
|
|
|
### Commands
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
aa-status #check the current status
|
|
aa-enforce #set profile to enforce mode (from disable or complain)
|
|
aa-complain #set profile to complain mode (from diable or enforcement)
|
|
apparmor_parser #to load/reload an altered policy
|
|
aa-genprof #generate a new profile
|
|
aa-logprof #used to change the policy when the binary/program is changed
|
|
aa-mergeprof #used to merge the policies
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Creating a profile
|
|
|
|
* In order to indicate the affected executable, **absolute paths and wildcards** are allowed (for file globbing) for specifying files.
|
|
* To indicate the access the binary will have over **files** the following **access controls** can be used:
|
|
* **r** (read)
|
|
* **w** (write)
|
|
* **m** (memory map as executable)
|
|
* **k** (file locking)
|
|
* **l** (creation hard links)
|
|
* **ix** (to execute another program with the new program inheriting policy)
|
|
* **Px** (execute under another profile, after cleaning the environment)
|
|
* **Cx** (execute under a child profile, after cleaning the environment)
|
|
* **Ux** (execute unconfined, after cleaning the environment)
|
|
* **Variables** can be defined in the profiles and can be manipulated from outside the profile. For example: @{PROC} and @{HOME} (add #include \<tunables/global> to the profile file)
|
|
* **Deny rules are supported to override allow rules**.
|
|
|
|
### aa-genprof
|
|
|
|
To easily start creating a profile apparmor can help you. It's possible to make **apparmor inspect the actions performed by a binary and then let you decide which actions you want to allow or deny**.\
|
|
You just need to run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo aa-genprof /path/to/binary
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, in a different console perform all the actions that the binary will usually perform:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
/path/to/binary -a dosomething
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, in the first console press "**s**" and then in the recorded actions indicate if you want to ignore, allow, or whatever. When you have finished press "**f**" and the new profile will be created in _/etc/apparmor.d/path.to.binary_
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
|
Using the arrow keys you can select what you want to allow/deny/whatever
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
### aa-easyprof
|
|
|
|
You can also create a template of an apparmor profile of a binary with:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo aa-easyprof /path/to/binary
|
|
# vim:syntax=apparmor
|
|
# AppArmor policy for binary
|
|
# ###AUTHOR###
|
|
# ###COPYRIGHT###
|
|
# ###COMMENT###
|
|
|
|
#include <tunables/global>
|
|
|
|
# No template variables specified
|
|
|
|
"/path/to/binary" {
|
|
#include <abstractions/base>
|
|
|
|
# No abstractions specified
|
|
|
|
# No policy groups specified
|
|
|
|
# No read paths specified
|
|
|
|
# No write paths specified
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
|
Note that by default in a created profile nothing is allowed, so everything is denied. You will need to add lines like `/etc/passwd r,` to allow the binary read `/etc/passwd` for example.
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
You can then **enforce** the new profile with
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apparmor_parser -a /etc/apparmor.d/path.to.binary
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Modifying a profile from logs
|
|
|
|
The following tool will read the logs and ask the user if he wants to permit some of the detected forbidden actions:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo aa-logprof
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
|
Using the arrow keys you can select what you want to allow/deny/whatever
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
### Managing a Profile
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
#Main profile management commands
|
|
apparmor_parser -a /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name #Load a new profile in enforce mode
|
|
apparmor_parser -C /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name #Load a new profile in complain mode
|
|
apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name #Replace existing profile
|
|
apparmor_parser -R /etc/apparmor.d/profile.name #Remove profile
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Logs
|
|
|
|
Example of **AUDIT** and **DENIED** logs from _/var/log/audit/audit.log_ of the executable **`service_bin`**:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
type=AVC msg=audit(1610061880.392:286): apparmor="AUDIT" operation="getattr" profile="/bin/rcat" name="/dev/pts/1" pid=954 comm="service_bin" requested_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000
|
|
type=AVC msg=audit(1610061880.392:287): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="/bin/rcat" name="/etc/hosts" pid=954 comm="service_bin" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can also get this information using:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo aa-notify -s 1 -v
|
|
Profile: /bin/service_bin
|
|
Operation: open
|
|
Name: /etc/passwd
|
|
Denied: r
|
|
Logfile: /var/log/audit/audit.log
|
|
|
|
Profile: /bin/service_bin
|
|
Operation: open
|
|
Name: /etc/hosts
|
|
Denied: r
|
|
Logfile: /var/log/audit/audit.log
|
|
|
|
AppArmor denials: 2 (since Wed Jan 6 23:51:08 2021)

|
## Apparmor in Docker
|
|
|
|
Note how the profile **docker-profile** of docker is loaded by default:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo aa-status
|
|
apparmor module is loaded.
|
|
50 profiles are loaded.
|
|
13 profiles are in enforce mode.
|
|
/sbin/dhclient
|
|
/usr/bin/lxc-start
|
|
/usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-client.action
|
|
/usr/lib/NetworkManager/nm-dhcp-helper
|
|
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser//browser_java
|
|
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser//browser_openjdk
|
|
/usr/lib/chromium-browser/chromium-browser//sanitized_helper
|
|
/usr/lib/connman/scripts/dhclient-script
|
|
docker-default
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
By default **Apparmor docker-default profile** is generated from [https://github.com/moby/moby/tree/master/profiles/apparmor](https://github.com/moby/moby/tree/master/profiles/apparmor)
|
|
|
|
**docker-default profile Summary**:
|
|
|
|
* **Access** to all **networking**
|
|
* **No capability** is defined (However, some capabilities will come from including basic base rules i.e. #include \<abstractions/base> )
|
|
* **Writing** to any **/proc** file is **not allowed**
|
|
* Other **subdirectories**/**files** of /**proc** and /**sys** are **denied** read/write/lock/link/execute access
|
|
* **Mount** is **not allowed**
|
|
* **Ptrace** can only be run on a process that is confined by **same apparmor profile**
|
|
|
|
Once you **run a docker container** you should see the following output:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
1 processes are in enforce mode.
|
|
docker-default (825)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that **apparmor will even block capabilities privileges** granted to the container by default. For example, it will be able to **block permission to write inside /proc even if the SYS\_ADMIN capability is granted** because by default docker apparmor profile denies this access:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --security-opt seccomp=unconfined ubuntu /bin/bash
|
|
echo "" > /proc/stat
|
|
sh: 1: cannot create /proc/stat: Permission denied
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You need to **disable apparmor** to bypass its restrictions:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker run -it --cap-add SYS_ADMIN --security-opt seccomp=unconfined --security-opt apparmor=unconfined ubuntu /bin/bash
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that by default **AppArmor** will also **forbid the container to mount** folders from the inside even with SYS\_ADMIN capability.
|
|
|
|
Note that you can **add/remove** **capabilities** to the docker container (this will be still restricted by protection methods like **AppArmor** and **Seccomp**):
|
|
|
|
* `--cap-add=SYS_ADMIN` give `SYS_ADMIN` cap
|
|
* `--cap-add=ALL` give all caps
|
|
* `--cap-drop=ALL --cap-add=SYS_PTRACE` drop all caps and only give `SYS_PTRACE`
|
|
|
|
{% hint style="info" %}
|
|
Usually, when you **find** that you have a **privileged capability** available **inside** a **docker** container **but** some part of the **exploit isn't working**, this will be because docker **apparmor will be preventing it**.
|
|
{% endhint %}
|
|
|
|
### Example
|
|
|
|
(Example from [**here**](https://sreeninet.wordpress.com/2016/03/06/docker-security-part-2docker-engine/))
|
|
|
|
To illustrate AppArmor functionality, I created a new Docker profile “mydocker” with the following line added:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
deny /etc/* w, # deny write for all files directly in /etc (not in a subdir)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To activate the profile, we need to do the following:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
sudo apparmor_parser -r -W mydocker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To list the profiles, we can do the following command. The command below is listing my new AppArmor profile.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ sudo apparmor_status | grep mydocker
|
|
mydocker
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
As shown below, we get error when trying to change “/etc/” since AppArmor profile is preventing write access to “/etc”.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ docker run --rm -it --security-opt apparmor:mydocker -v ~/haproxy:/localhost busybox chmod 400 /etc/hostname
|
|
chmod: /etc/hostname: Permission denied
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### AppArmor Docker Bypass1
|
|
|
|
You can find which **apparmor profile is running a container** using:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
docker inspect 9d622d73a614 | grep lowpriv
|
|
"AppArmorProfile": "lowpriv",
|
|
"apparmor=lowpriv"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then, you can run the following line to **find the exact profile being used**:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
find /etc/apparmor.d/ -name "*lowpriv*" -maxdepth 1 2>/dev/null
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
In the weird case you can **modify the apparmor docker profile and reload it.** You could remove the restrictions and "bypass" them.
|
|
|
|
### AppArmor Docker Bypass2
|
|
|
|
**AppArmor is path based**, this means that even if it might be **protecting** files inside a directory like **`/proc`** if you can **configure how the container is going to be run**, you could **mount** the proc directory of the host inside **`/host/proc`** and it **won't be protected by AppArmor anymore**.
|
|
|
|
### AppArmor Shebang Bypass
|
|
|
|
In [**this bug**](https://bugs.launchpad.net/apparmor/+bug/1911431) you can see an example of how **even if you are preventing perl to be run with certain resources**, if you just create a a shell script **specifying** in the first line **`#!/usr/bin/perl`** and you **execute the file directly**, you will be able to execute whatever you want. E.g.:
|
|
|
|
```perl
|
|
echo '#!/usr/bin/perl
|
|
use POSIX qw(strftime);
|
|
use POSIX qw(setuid);
|
|
POSIX::setuid(0);
|
|
exec "/bin/sh"' > /tmp/test.pl
|
|
chmod +x /tmp/test.pl
|
|
/tmp/test.pl
|
|
```
