** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 1366261 Apparmor prevents reading /run/utmp -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to rsyslog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1100060 Title: apparmor profile denies access to /run/utmp Status in “rsyslog” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The Apparmor profile of rsyslogd, when enabled, prevents the daemon from reading /run/utmp: Jan 15 16:59:53 log kernel: [15515.765872] type=1400 audit(1358287193.318:13): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" parent=1 profile="/usr/sbin/rsyslogd" name="/run/utmp" pid=592 comm=72733A6D61696E20513A526567 requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=101 ouid=0 This is the first time I see this denial since I enabled the profile many months ago. The easy fix seems to simply include the "wutmp" abstraction to the profile. The only thing I can see that could have triggered this, is the *heavy* IO load of the underlying hypervisor powering this VM. Other VMs on the same hypervisor emitted "BUG: soft lockup - CPU#0 stuck for 39s! [flush-253:0:734]" at the same second as the rsyslog apparmor denial. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS Release: 12.04 $ apt-cache policy rsyslog rsyslog: Installed: 5.8.6-1ubuntu8 Candidate: 5.8.6-1ubuntu8 Version table: *** 5.8.6-1ubuntu8 0 500 http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: rsyslog 5.8.6-1ubuntu8 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.2.0-35.55-virtual 3.2.34 Uname: Linux 3.2.0-35-virtual x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: xt_tcpudp xt_recent xt_owner xt_limit xt_conntrack nf_nat_ftp nf_conntrack_ipv6 nf_defrag_ipv6 nf_conntrack_ftp ipt_MASQUERADE ipt_LOG iptable_nat nf_nat nf_conntrack_ipv4 nf_conntrack nf_defrag_ipv4 iptable_filter ip_tables ip6t_LOG ip6table_filter ip6_tables x_tables ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Jan 15 17:08:14 2013 MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: rsyslog UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) mtime.conffile..etc.rsyslog.conf: 2012-04-16T23:17:45.198820 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/rsyslog/+bug/1100060/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages Post to : touch-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~touch-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
