AA-EASYPROF(8) AppArmor AA-EASYPROF(8)
NAME
aa-easyprof - AppArmor profile generation made easy.
SYNOPSIS
aa-easyprof [option] <path to binary>
DESCRIPTION
aa-easyprof provides an easy to use interface for AppArmor policy generation. aa-easyprof supports the use of templates and policy groups
to quickly profile an application. Please note that while this tool can help with policy generation, its utility is dependent on the
quality of the templates, policy groups and abstractions used. Also, this tool may create policy which is less restricted than creating
policy by hand or with aa-genprof and aa-logprof.
OPTIONS
aa-easyprof accepts the following arguments:
-t TEMPLATE, --template=TEMPLATE
Specify which template to use. May specify either a system template from /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates or a filename for the
template to use. If not specified, use /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/templates/default.
-p POLICYGROUPS, --policy-groups=POLICYGROUPS
Specify POLICY as a comma-separated list of policy groups. See --list-templates for supported policy groups. The available policy
groups are in /usr/share/apparmor/easyprof/policy. Policy groups are simply groupings of AppArmor rules or policies. They are similar
to AppArmor abstractions, but usually encompass more policy rules.
-a ABSTRACTIONS, --abstractions=ABSTRACTIONS
Specify ABSTRACTIONS as a comma-separated list of AppArmor abstractions. It is usually recommended you use policy groups instead, but
this is provided as a convenience. AppArmor abstractions are located in /etc/apparmor.d/abstractions. See apparmor.d(5) for details.
-r PATH, --read-path=PATH
Specify a PATH to allow owner reads. May be specified multiple times. If the PATH ends in a '/', then PATH is treated as a directory
and reads are allowed to all files under this directory. Can optionally use '/*' at the end of the PATH to only allow reads to files
directly in PATH.
-w PATH, --write-dir=PATH
Like --read-path but also allow owner writes in additions to reads.
-n NAME, --name=NAME
Specify NAME of policy. If not specified, NAME is set to the name of the binary. The NAME of the policy is often used as part of the
path in the various templates.
--template-var="@{VAR}=VALUE"
Set VAR to VALUE in the resulting policy. This typically only makes sense if the specified template uses this value. May be specified
multiple times.
--list-templates
List available templates.
--show-template=TEMPLATE
Display template specified with --template.
--templates-dir=PATH
Use PATH instead of system templates directory.
--list-policy-groups
List available policy groups.
--show-policy-group
Display policy groups specified with --policy.
--policy-groups-dir=PATH
Use PATH instead of system policy-groups directory.
--author
Specify author of the policy.
--copyright
Specify copyright of the policy.
--comment
Specify comment for the policy.
EXAMPLE
Example usage for a program named 'foo' which is installed in /opt/foo:
$ aa-easyprof --template=user-application --template-var="@{APPNAME}=foo" --policy-groups=opt-application,user-application
/opt/foo/bin/FooApp
