Public bug reported:
It would be nice if webbrowser-app itself could ship an apparmor
profile. Since we are already confining webapps, we can leverage aa-
easyprof to generate the apparmor profile. Eg, in debian/rules could
have a target :
apparmor:
aa-easyprof --policy-version=1.2 --policy-vendor=ubuntu \
-t ubuntu-webapp \
--policy-groups=accounts,audio,content_exchange,content_exchange_source,location,networking,push-notification-client,video,webview
\
--template-var="@{APP_ID_DBUS}=webbrowser_2dapp" \
--template-var="@{APP_PKGNAME_DBUS}=webbrowser_2dapp" \
--template-var="@{APP_PKGNAME}=webbrowser-app" \
--template-var="@{CLICK_DIR}=/usr/share/webbrowser-app" \
--abstraction=user-tmp \
--read-path=/usr/share/applications/ \
--read-path="@{HOME}/.local/share/applications/" \
--profile-name=webbrowser-app \
--no-verify /usr/bin/webbrowser-app | \
grep -v CLICK_DIR | \
sed 's/signal peer=@{APP_PKGNAME}_\*_@{APP_VERSION},/signal
peer=@{APP_PKGNAME},/g' \
> ./debian/usr.bin.webbrowser-app
apparmor_parser -QTK ./debian/usr.bin.webbrowser-app
In this manner, you could this to update the apparmor profile:
$ debian/rules apparmor
I use '--no-verify' because we need to very lightly tidy up the profile
with the 'grep -v' and the 'sed', which is why after it is cleaned I run
'apparmor_parser -QTK' on the profile to verify it. This could probably
be done as part of the build too. Once the profile is in place, you can
simply do something along the lines of
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~jdstrand/ubuntu-system-settings/ubuntu-
system-settings-lp1296415/revision/748.
I have lightly tested this on the phone for the following:
* http
* https
* sharing to messaging app
* url-dispatcher via messaging-app to open a link (with the browser open and
closed)
* maps.google.com (prompted for access)
* youtube (one denial: apparmor="DENIED" operation="dbus_method_call"
bus="system" path="/com/canonical/Unity/Screen"
interface="com.canonical.Unity.Screen" member="keepDisplayOn" mask="send"
name="com.canonical.Unity.Screen" pid=12566 profile="webbrowser-app"
peer_pid=1575 peer_profile="unconfined")
* html5.grooveshark.com
* grooveshark via music scope
I also even more lightly tested it on the desktop, and it appears to
work ok.
