Bug description:
[Impact]
When attempting to set up a vm with libvirt using swtpm in Kinetic,
swtpm's apparmor profile will deny access to the pid file in
/run/libvirt/qemu/swtpm/.
The fix for this issue should be backported to Kinetic because it
blocks all users attempting to set up a libvirt TPM vm with an error.
This bug is fixed by removing the "owner" tag from the line "owner
/run/libvirt/qemu/swtpm/*.pid rwk," allowing libvirt-created pid files
to be used.
[Test Plan]
The fix can be tested using virt-manager and an os using TPM:
# sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade -y
# sudo apt install virt-manager swtpm
Create a vm in virt-manager and on the last page
> Select "Customize configuration before install"
> Click Finish
> Click Add Hardware
> Select TPM with Model "TIS" and version 2.0
> Click "Begin Installation"
[Where problems could occur]
By removing the owner tag in line in the apparmor profile, any file
with a .pid extension in /run/libvirt/qemu/swtpm/ will be
manipulatable by swtpm. If swtpm were to act maliciously, it would
have an overall greater reach in this folder.
[Original Description]
libvirt 8.6.0-0ubuntu1
apparmor 3.0.7-1ubuntu1
One of our CI tests runs virt-install in a specific way that
ultimately fails with this in the error message:
ERROR internal error: Could not get process id of swtpm
The journal has this message:
audit: type=1400 audit(1662628523.308:121): apparmor="DENIED"
operation="file_inherit" profile="swtpm"
name="/run/libvirt/qemu/swtpm/1-VmNotInstalled-swtpm.pid" pid=13944
comm="swtpm" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=118 ouid=0
This is nested virtualization. If you need the exact invocation of
virt-install, I can dig that out.
