Thanks for sharing this detailed bug description. System-level issues like profile corruption can seriously affect usability, especially for end users who can’t apply technical workarounds. Just like in tech, services like Chicago Limo Service also rely on reliable systems to ensure smooth operations. Any glitches in service or software can impact user experience greatly. I hope the root cause of this issue is found soon to avoid more disruptions.

We've already fixed several bugs in the apparmor and click-apparmor and made both more robust in the face of corruption and we've reduced the impact when there is a corrupted profile, but we've still not found the cause of the corruption. This corruption can still affect real-world devices: if a profile in /var/lib/apparmor/profiles is corrupted and the cache file is out of date, then the profile won't compile and that app/scope won't start. Workaround: remove the affected profile and then run 'sudo aa- clickhook'. This obviously is not viable on an end-user device. The investigation is ongoing and this may not be a problem with the kernel at all, so this bug may be retargeted to another project. The security team and the kernel team have discussed this a lot and Colin King is currently looking at this. This bug is just so it can be tracked. Here is an excerpt from my latest email to Colin: "I believe I have conclusively ruled out apparmor_parser and aa- clickhook by creating a new 'home/bug/test-with-true.sh'. Here is the test output: http://paste.ubuntu.com/8648109/ Specifically, home/bug/test-with-true.sh changes the interesting parts of the algorithm to: 1. wait for unity8 to start (this ensures the apparmor upstart job is finished) 2. restore apparmor_parser and aa-clickhook, if needed 3. if /home/bug/profiles... exists, perform a diff -Naur /home/bug/profiles... /var/lib/apparmor/profiles and fail if differences (note, apparmor_parser and aa-clickhook were /bin/true during boot so they could not have changed /var/lib/apparmor/profiles) 4. verify the profiles, exit with error if they do not 5. alternately upgrade/downgrade the packages 6. verify the profiles, exit with error if they do not 7. copy the known good profiles in the previous step to /home/bug/profiles... 8. have apparmor_parser and aa-clickhook point to /bin/true 9. reboot 10. go to step 1 In the paste you'll notice that in step 6 the profiles were successfully created by the installation of the packages, then verified, then copied aside, then apparmor_parser and aa-clickhook diverted, then rebooted, only to have the profiles in /var/lib/apparmor/profiles be different than what was copied aside. It would be nice to verify on your device as well (I reproduced several times here) and verify the reproducer algorithm. I think this suggests this is a kernel issue and not userspace. IMPORTANT: you will want to update the reproducer and refollow all of these steps (ie, I updated the scripts, the debs, the sudoers file, etc): $ wget http://people.canonical.com/~jamie/cking/aa-corruption.tar.gz $ tar -zxvf ./aa-corruption.tar.gz ... $ adb push ./aa-corruption.tar.gz /tmp $ adb shell phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ cd /tmp phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ tar -zxvf ./aa-corruption.tar.gz phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo mount -o remount,rw / phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo cp ./aa-corruption/etc/sudoers.d/phablet /etc/sudoers.d/ phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo mount -o remount,ro / phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ sudo cp -a ./aa-corruption/home/bug /home phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ exit $ cd ./aa-corruption $ ./test-from-host.sh ... The old script is still in place. Simply adjust ./test-from-host.sh to have: testscript=/home/bug/test.sh #testscript=/home/bug/test-with-true.sh" The kernel team has verified the above reproducer and symptoms.
