Hello,
thanks for the 2.13.1 and 2.12.1 releases!
As usual ;-) a release is only good after applying a few post-release
patches. For those who weren't on IRC today, here's a short summary
about two regressions I noticed:
* syntax error in rc.apparmor.functions (2.13.1 + master)
This breaks "systemctl start apparmor" and probably a few others using
rc.apparmor.functions, at least with bash as shell. Luckily the fix is
quite easy: https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor/merge_requests/240
* regression in the dovecot and apache profiles caused by profile name
with alternations (2.11..master)
https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor/merge_requests/149 changed the
profiles with "sbin" in the path to also work on merged bin and sbin,
so the profile name now contains {bin,sbin}. The signal rules in
dovecot-common and apache2-common abstractions were also updated, but
in a wrong way. They need peer=....\{bin,sbin\}... instead of just
{bin,sbin} - and this little detail means signals get denied :-(
The obvious fix for master (and possibly the "newer" branches 2.12 and
2.13) is to use profile names. For 2.11 which is somewhat older, I
tend to revert the change to {bin,sbin} to avoid changing profile
names in that old branch at all [1]. (For completeness: !149 wasn't
backported to the 2.10 branch.)
Any opinions and/or volunteers?
Oh, and I still hope to see a fix for Px -> foo//bar ;-)
That said - would it make sense to release 2.13.2 and 2.12.2 in a few
days to fix these regressions?
Regards,
Christian Boltz
[1] The maintenance updates for the 2.11 and 2.10 branches weren't done
yet, and IMHO we should delay them by a few days and get this issue
fixed first.
