Questions about using apparmor












0















I am investigating a Mandatory Access Control (MAC) scheme based on embedded Linux.
I have some questions about Apparmor while learning through the following resources.




  • https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor


  • https://medium.com/information-and-technology/so-what-is-apparmor-64d7ae211ed



I finished adding Kernel configure and apparmor tools (ex. Apparmor_parser) through the link above and tried some tests.



As I learned through the above tutorial, I create a profile for a specific application and then use the apparmor_parser utility to enable this profile, then the application's behavior will only be accessible to the content specified in the profile.



Here are some additional features I would like to see in apparmor:




  1. If there is a critical resource in my device, I want to make access to this resource only accessible to a specific application.
    The important resources are certificates of devices or private keys.


  2. I want to make access to a library such as openssl in my device accessible only to a specific application.



As I wrote above, it seems that it is possible to control access by creating and activating a profile for a specific application when the application is infringed.



However, when the malware application is installed on the device, it seems that it is possible to access important information (device certificate or private key) or the encryption library in the device.



If you have any questions, please answer them.
