As a result of the "slave" versus "make-slave" revelation, I've created
two upstream AppArmor bugs. The first is for the AppArmor documentation
being wrong about the acceptable mount option strings (bug #1401619).
The second is for the AppArmor parser accepting unknown mount option
strings (bug #1401621).
Since the fix for this specific bug will come as an lxc update, I'm
going to mark the AppArmor tasks in this bug as invalid and use the two
bugs mentioned above.
** Changed in: apparmor
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => Invalid
** Description changed:
+ NOTE: This bug will be fixed with an update to lxc. However, two
+ AppArmor bugs (bug #1401619 and bug #1401621) were identified as a
+ result of triaging this bug and they will both be fixed in upstream
+ AppArmor.

When the file system is mounted as MS_SHARED by default (such as under
systemd, or when the admin configures it so), things like schroot or LXC
need to make their "guest" mounts private. This currently fails under
utopic:
$ sudo lxc-create -t busybox -n c1
$ sudo mount --make-rshared /
$ sudo strace -fvvs1024 -e mount lxc-start -n c1
[...]
[pid 10749] mount(NULL, "/", NULL, MS_SLAVE, NULL) = -1 EACCES (Permission
denied)
lxc-start: Permission denied - Failed to make / rslave
dmesg says:
audit: type=1400 audit(1406825005.687:551): apparmor="DENIED" operation="mo
unt" info="failed flags match" error=-13 profile="/usr/bin/lxc-start"
name="/" pid=8228 co
mm="lxc-start" flags="rw, slave"
(This happens for all mount points on your system, I'm just showing the
first one)
This will leave a couple of leaked mounts on your system. This is an
useful rune to clean them up:
$ for i in 1 2 3; do sudo umount `mount|grep lxc|awk '{print $3}'`; done
(needs to be done several times; check with "mount |grep lxc" that it's
clean)
I tried to allow that by adding this to /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/lxc
/start-container:
mount options=(rw, slave) -> **,
then reload the policy and rety with
$ sudo stop lxc; sudo start lxc; sudo lxc-start -n c1
(and again clean up the mounts with above rune)
I tried some variations of this, like
mount options in (rw, slave, rslave, shared, rshared) -> **,
but none of them worked. The only things that do work are one of
mount,
mount -> **,
but those are too lax to be an effective security restriction.
WORKAROUND
==========
(Attention: insecure! Don't use for production machines)
Add this to /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions/lxc/start-container:
- mount,
-
+ mount,
