Title:
Support Online Accounts v2 API
Status in apparmor-easyprof-ubuntu package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
In the last few months we've been working on a simplified API for online
accounts, targeted at confined applications. The whole API is provided by a
D-Bus service (com.ubuntu.OnlineAccounts.Manager, and the interface has the
same name) and doesn't require any of the other rules currently defined in the
"accounts" policy.
This new API is also more limited than the current one: it doesn't allow
modifying the accounts or enumerating the applications registered with OA.
We would like that developers of confined applications switch to the
new API. However, we cannot remove the old one, because it will still
be used by some system services; moreover, the current API with the
"accounts" policy will still have to be used by (even confined)
account plugins. So, the two APIs need to coexist.
The question is whether the apparmor policies should be distinct, or
whether the new rule for the v2 API should be added to the existing
"accounts" policy.
My proposal would be to create a new policy for the v2 API, and call it
"accounts_read". The existing "accounts" policy should remain unchanged, but it
would be great if the click-reviewer-tool could be modify to restrict its usage
for account_plugins only. If the "accounts" policy is used by a confined click
app, that should trigger a manual review.
These checks should be activated only if the framework being used is
ubuntu-sdk-15.10 or later, in order not to cause disruptions to applications
which are currently working fine.
I don't know if it's possible for the click-reviewer-tool to do these
checks, and in any case all the above is just my idea; different
suggestions on how to handle the transition are very welcome.
