2020-05-18 04:31:13 Paul Collins description I've been working on snapping an app (shairport-sync) that uses Avahi. Currently on startup it's logging the following in the system logs, and is not showing up in avahi-browse: type=USER_AVC msg=audit(1589774287.950:1675435): pid=1759 uid=102 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 msg='apparmor="DENIED" operation="dbus_method_call" bus="system" path="/" interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer" member="Ping" mask="send" name="org.freedesktop.Avahi" pid=3965241 label="snap.shairport-sync.shairport-sync" peer_pid=2184133 peer_label="avahi-daemon" exe="/usr/bin/dbus-daemon" sauid=102 hostname=? addr=? terminal=?' I see the following in avahi_observe.go: dbus (receive) bus=system path=/ interface=org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer member=Ping peer=(label=###PLUG_SECURITY_TAGS###), Other rules seem to be of this form: peer=(name=org.freedesktop.Avahi,label=###SLOT_SECURITY_TAGS###), and as you can see above the denied message has name="org.freedesktop.Avahi". As an experiment I reinstalled my snap in devmode and got the following: type=USER_AVC msg=audit(1589775249.321:1676149): pid=1759 uid=102 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 msg='apparmor="ALLOWED" operation="dbus_method_call" bus="system" path="/" interface="org.freedesktop.DBus.Peer" member="Ping" mask="send" name="org.freedesktop.Avahi" pid=3988011 label="snap.shairport-sync.shairport-sync" peer_pid=2184133 peer_label="avahi-daemon" exe="/usr/bin/dbus-daemon" sauid=102 hostname=? addr=? terminal=?' followed by lots of other happy-looking messages, e.g.: type=USER_AVC msg=audit(1589775249.321:1676150): pid=1759 uid=102 auid=4294967295 ses=4294967295 msg='apparmor="ALLOWED" operation="dbus_method_call" bus="system" path="/" interface="org.freedesktop.Avahi.Server" member="GetAPIVersion" mask="send" name="org.freedesktop.Avahi" pid=3988011 label="snap.shairport-sync.shairport-sync" peer_pid=2184133 peer_label="avahi-daemon" exe="/usr/bin/dbus-daemon" sauid=102 hostname=? addr=? terminal=?' and my machine appeared in avahi-browse and was visible to my other mDNS devices. Given all this I suspect the rule for Ping above is too restrictive and should be loosened to allow the denied message above.

So the problem seems to be solely due to confinement. In fact, the generated profile has the following: peer=(name=org.freedesktop.Avahi,label="{unconfined,/usr/sbin/avahi-daemon}"), but the denials have the following: peer_label="avahi-daemon" so I suspect the avahi-daemon labelling has changed in Ubuntu (I'm running 20.04 LTS).
