FTR this was raised as a potential blocker for enabling AppArmor by default on Debian: https://bugs.debian.org/872726. I'm going to investigate why this is a blocker there.
tl;dr: as the audit maintainers said in 2014 (https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux-audit/2014-May/msg00119.html) and 2016 (https://www.redhat.com/archives/linux- audit/2016-April/msg00129.html), we should use events ids from the range that has been allocated to us (1500-1599) instead of from the range assigned to SELinux. Any plans / ETA to fix this? Regardless of how you would prioritize this problem otherwise, the fact it might prevent AppArmor from being enabled by default in Debian could be a reason to handle it ASAP :) ** Bug watch added: Debian Bug tracker #872726 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=872726 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of AppArmor Developers, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1117804 Title: ausearch doesn't show AppArmor denial messages Status in AppArmor: Confirmed Status in audit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: The following command should display all AVC denials: ausearch -m avc However, it doesn't work with AppArmor denials.
