set a group and user for the service
remove default null config
it's required, now it throws an error pointing to the option
set myself (module author) as maintainer
(It was requested by them.)
I left one case due to fetching from their personal repo:
pkgs/desktops/pantheon/desktop/extra-elementary-contracts/default.nix
Since v2021.5.0 home-assistant uses the ifaddr library in the zeroconf
component to enumerate network interfaces via netlink. Since discovery
is all over the place lets allow AF_NETLINK unconditionally.
It also relies on pyroute2 now, which additionally tries to access files
in /proc/net, so we relax ProtectProc a bit by default as well.
This leaves us with these options unsecured:
✗ PrivateNetwork= Service has access to the host's network 0.5
✗ RestrictAddressFamilies=~AF_(INET|INET6) Service may allocate Internet sockets 0.3
✗ DeviceAllow= Service has a device ACL with some special devices 0.1
✗ IPAddressDeny= Service does not define an IP address allow list 0.2
✗ PrivateDevices= Service potentially has access to hardware devices 0.2
✗ PrivateUsers= Service has access to other users 0.2
✗ SystemCallFilter=~@resources System call allow list defined for service, and @resources is included (e.g. ioprio_set is allowed) 0.2
✗ RestrictAddressFamilies=~AF_NETLINK Service may allocate netlink sockets 0.1
✗ RootDirectory=/RootImage= Service runs within the host's root directory 0.1
✗ SupplementaryGroups= Service runs with supplementary groups 0.1
✗ RestrictAddressFamilies=~AF_UNIX Service may allocate local sockets 0.1
✗ ProcSubset= Service has full access to non-process /proc files (/proc subset=) 0.1
→ Overall exposure level for home-assistant.service: 1.6 OK 🙂
libbrotli wasn't listed as a dependency for the AppArmor profile of the transmission-daemon binary.
As a result, transmission wouldn't run and would fail, logging this audit message to dmesg:
