Latest revision as of 03:06, 5 June 2024

This material is work-in-progress ...

Someone more experienced needs to look over this.
(Last edited by Encode on 5 Jun 2024.)

Todo:
  • Since bubblewrap can make use of seccomp, restrictive versions should be added.
  • imv, mpv and zathura currently only accept 1 mandatory (except imv) argument. This should (hopefully) be temporary, until I figure out how to pass multiple arguments (without including everything else).


Warning: These were found by going backward; start with a complicated program and as restricted as possible sandbox, allowing more till the program appears to work. Because of this, complicated and sensitive programs (for example: firefox and keepassxc) may be missing some things they need, which might lead to LESS SECURITY, LESS PRIVACY and DATA LOSS.


Note:
  • This page assumes you have already read Bubblewrap.
  • To try and avoid duplicates everything will be explained for Firefox and only when it differs (non obviously) for everything else.
  • Where applicable, this assumes: Wayland only + PipeWire.
If Wayland is needed, make sure you have dealt with XDG_RUNTIME_DIR.

Firefox

Contents of ~/.local/bin/bwrap-firefox

#!/bin/sh # Firefox wrapped in bwrap with network access. set -u XDG_CACHE_HOME="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}" XDG_DATA_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}" NEW_HOME='/home/user' NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CACHE_HOME#"$HOME"}" mkdir -pm 0700 "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" /usr/bin/bwrap \ --unshare-all \ --share-net \ --new-session \ --die-with-parent \ --clearenv \ --setenv HOME "$NEW_HOME" \ --setenv WAYLAND_DISPLAY "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" \ --setenv XDG_CACHE_HOME "$NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME" \ --setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \ --hostname localhost \ --dev /dev/ \ --ro-bind /etc/fonts/ /etc/fonts/ \ --ro-bind /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf \ --bind-try "${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" "${NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" \ --bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/" \ --bind-try "${HOME}/Downloads/" "${NEW_HOME}/Downloads/" \ --ro-bind /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 \ --ro-bind /lib/libblkid.so.1 /lib/libblkid.so.1 \ --ro-bind /lib/libcrypto.so.3 /lib/libcrypto.so.3 \ --ro-bind /lib/libmount.so.1 /lib/libmount.so.1 \ --ro-bind /lib/libz.so.1 /lib/libz.so.1 \ --proc /proc/ \ --ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" \ --ro-bind /usr/lib/ /usr/lib/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/X11/xkb/ /usr/share/X11/xkb/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/fontconfig/ /usr/share/fontconfig/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/fonts/ /usr/share/fonts/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/glib-2.0/ /usr/share/glib-2.0/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/icons/ /usr/share/icons/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/icu/ /usr/share/icu/ \ --ro-bind /usr/share/mime/ /usr/share/mime/ \ /usr/lib/firefox/firefox

If the shell tries to expand an unset parameter, it will error (with a few exceptions).

XDG_CACHE_HOME="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}"
XDG_DATA_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"

Take value if already set, else fallback to the XDG default.

NEW_HOME='/home/user'

User to appear as.

NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CACHE_HOME#"$HOME"}"

"$XDG_CACHE_HOME" for the new user.

mkdir -pm 0700 "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/"

Make sure the new (real) home for Firefox data exist.

--unshare-all \

Unshare all possible namespaces.

--share-net \

Retain the network namespace.

--new-session \

New terminal session for the sandbox.

--die-with-parent \

Child process dies when bwrap parent dies.

--clearenv \

Unset all environment variables (except for "$PWD").

--setenv HOME "$NEW_HOME" \

Pass the path to "$NEW_HOME" for "$HOME".

--setenv WAYLAND_DISPLAY "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" \

Specify the Wayland display to run clients on.

--setenv XDG_CACHE_HOME "$NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME" \

User-specific non-essential (cached) data.

--setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \

User-specific non-essential runtime files and other file objects.

--hostname localhost \

Use custom hostname in the sandbox.

--dev /dev/ \

New devtmpfs, access to special or device files.

--ro-bind /etc/fonts/ /etc/fonts/ \

System font configuration directory.

--ro-bind /etc/resolv.conf /etc/resolv.conf \

Needed for DNS resolution.

--bind-try "${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" "${NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" \

Per-user Mozilla cache.

...
XDG_CACHE_HOME="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}"
XDG_CONFIG_HOME "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"
XDG_DATA_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"
...
NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CACHE_HOME#"$HOME"}"
NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CONFIG_HOME#"$HOME"}"

...
--setenv WAYLAND_DISPLAY "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" \
--setenv XDG_CONFIG_HOME "$NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME" \
--setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \
...
--bind-try "${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" "${NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" \
--ro-bind-try "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/fontconfig/" "${NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/fontconfig/" \
--bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/" \
...

(Optional) Per-user font configuration directory.

...
XDG_CACHE_HOME="${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}"
XDG_CONFIG_HOME "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"
XDG_DATA_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"
...
NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CACHE_HOME#"$HOME"}"
NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CONFIG_HOME#"$HOME"}"

...
--setenv WAYLAND_DISPLAY "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" \
--setenv XDG_CONFIG_HOME "$NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME" \
--setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \
...
--bind-try "${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" "${XDG_CACHE_HOME}/mozilla/" \
--ro-bind-try "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/user-dirs.dirs" "${NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/user-dirs.dirs" \
--bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/" \
...

(Optional) If you modify "well known" user directories, like ~/Downloads/, you need this to have Firefox pick it up.

Note: If you use "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/user-dirs.dirs" you should also add the corresponding path(s).

For example if you set XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR to "${HOME}/downloads/" you would also add:

 ...
 --bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/" \
 --bind-try "${HOME}/downloads/" "${NEW_HOME}/downloads/" \
 --ro-bind /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 \
 ...
--bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/" \

"${XDG_DATA_HOME}/firefox/" is the location of Firefox data. Shown to Firefox as "${NEW_HOME}/.mozilla/".

Note: This has the added benefit of getting ~/.mozilla/ out of your "$HOME", and conforming more to XDG. This may one day not be necessary: Support for the Freedesktop.org XDG Base Directory Specification (2004-09-14).
...
NEW_XDG_CACHE_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CACHE_HOME#"$HOME"}"
NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_DATA_HOME#"$HOME"}"

...
--setenv WAYLAND_DISPLAY "$WAYLAND_DISPLAY" \
--setenv XDG_DATA_HOME "$NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME" \
--setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \
...

--ro-bind-try "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/fonts/" "${NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME}/fonts/" \
--bind-try "${HOME}/Downloads/" "${NEW_HOME}/Downloads/" \
...

(Optional) Per-user directory scanned for font files.

--bind-try "${HOME}/Downloads/" "${NEW_HOME}/Downloads/" \

Default ~/Downloads/ directory.

--ro-bind /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 \
--ro-bind /lib/libblkid.so.1 /lib/libblkid.so.1 \
--ro-bind /lib/libcrypto.so.3 /lib/libcrypto.so.3 \
--ro-bind /lib/libmount.so.1 /lib/libmount.so.1 \
--ro-bind /lib/libz.so.1 /lib/libz.so.1 \

Shared libraries.

--proc /proc/ \

New procfs, provides information about running processes and the kernel.

--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" \

Bind the Wayland socket file.

--ro-bind /usr/lib/ /usr/lib/ \

Object files and libraries.

Note: It is not worth the time to limit this, the churn is too great.
--ro-bind /usr/share/X11/xkb/ /usr/share/X11/xkb/ \

XKB is a keyboard keymap support library.

Note: Even tho the path has */X11/* Wayland uses it too.
--ro-bind /usr/share/fontconfig/ /usr/share/fontconfig/ \

Font presets.

--ro-bind /usr/share/fonts/ /usr/share/fonts/ \

Global directory scanned for font files.

--ro-bind /usr/share/glib-2.0/ /usr/share/glib-2.0/ \

Needed for "Save Page As…", "Export|Import Bookmarks File", among others.

--ro-bind /usr/share/icons/ /usr/share/icons/ \

Global icons directory.

--ro-bind /usr/share/icu/ /usr/share/icu/ \

International Components for Unicode (ICU) provides support for Unicode and globalization.

...
--ro-bind /usr/share/icu/ /usr/share/icu/ \
--ro-bind /usr/share/libdrm/ /usr/share/libdrm/ \
--ro-bind /usr/share/mime/ /usr/share/mime/ \
...

(Optional) Direct Rendering Manager (DRM), Linux kernel subsystem for interfacing with GPUs of video cards. Programs can use this to have the GPU do hardware-accelerated 3D rendering and video decoding.

--ro-bind /usr/share/mime/ /usr/share/mime/ \

Global XDG MIME directory.

/usr/lib/firefox/firefox

Call Firefox.

Tip: If you use multiple profiles you can have:
/usr/lib/firefox/firefox -P "$@"
this will allow you to pass a profile name and go into that specific one or not pass anything and get prompted for which to choose.

PipeWire audio

Todo:


Pulse audio

...
--proc /proc/ \
--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse/" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse/" \
--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" \
...

(Optional) Pulse audio.

Optional(?) stuff

This material is work-in-progress ...

Are these needed?
(Last edited by Encode on 5 Jun 2024.)

...
--proc /proc/ \
--ro-bind /sys/bus/pci/ /sys/bus/pci/ \
--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" \
...

Information about PCI bus type.

Without this you get

Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: glxtest: cannot access /sys/bus/pci (t=0.177033) [GFX1-]: glxtest: cannot access /sys/bus/pci

but it still seems to work.

...
--proc /proc/ \
--ro-bind /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ \
--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/${WAYLAND_DISPLAY}" \
...

Contains a filesystem representation of the kernel device tree.

With --ro-bind /sys/bus/pci/ /sys/bus/pci/ \ but without this you get:

Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: glxtest: ManageChildProcess failed
 (t=0.189558) [GFX1-]: glxtest: ManageChildProcess failed
Crash Annotation GraphicsCriticalError: |[0][GFX1-]: glxtest: ManageChildProcess failed
 (t=0.189558) |[1][GFX1-]: No GPUs detected via PCI
 (t=0.18958) [GFX1-]: No GPUs detected via PCI

but it still seems to work.

--ro-bind /sys/dev/char/ /sys/dev/char/ \

Access to character devices.

--ro-bind /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ \

Access to PCI resources.

--ro-bind "${1:-./}" "$(realpath "${1:-./}")" \

Get the absolute pathname using realpath, so you can pass a relative argument and still bind the argument. If you don't pass in anything it will default to ./, the current directory.

Warning: If you don't pass anything and it defaults to the current directory, it will have everything under that directory shown to imv, recursively.


KeePassXC

Note: I only use the bare minimum functionality, so functionality you need is probably missing. If you use functionality not here, your contribution will be most appreciated. To kick things off: Unable to initialize libusb. USB devices may not be detected properly. can be silenced with --dev-bind /dev/bus/usb/ /dev/bus/usb/ \.

Directory containing your keepassxc password database.

Tip: This is almost certainly not where your database is located. You will need to change it to where you put your password database.
--setenv XDG_SESSION_TYPE "$XDG_SESSION_TYPE" \

Session type, since we are assuming Wayland only, this will be "wayland".

--ro-bind /sys/dev/char/ /sys/dev/char/ \

Access to character devices.

--ro-bind /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ \

Access to character devices.

--ro-bind /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ \

Access to PCI resources.

--ro-bind "$1" "$(realpath "$1")" \

Get the absolute pathname using realpath, so you can pass a relative argument and still bind the argument.

--player-operation-mode=pseudo-gui \

Because --new-session is used, this is needed to have a way to control mpv when it would otherwise not show a GUI.

Tip: If you followed Bubblewrap#.desktop_integration, you should remove it from "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/applications/bwrap-mpv.desktop".
--title='bwrap | ${media-title}' \

Set the window title, showing at a glance that you are using bwrap.

mpv-net

If you want to use mpv to stream over the Internet, you will need a few things more.

Tip: You can use both bwrap-mpv and bwrap-mpv-net. bwrap-mpv for local stuff and bwrap-mpv-net for watching over the Internet.

Todo: Document why this is needed.


--ro-bind /etc/ssl/certs/ /etc/ssl/certs/ \

Certificate authorities that are trusted.

--ro-bind /sys/dev/char/ /sys/dev/char/ \

Access to character devices.

--ro-bind /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ /sys/devices/pci0000:00/ \

Access to PCI resources.

"$@"

This is so you can pass more options to bwrap-mpv-net, for example:

$ bwrap-mpv-net --video=no --sub=no 'URL1' 'URL2'

Pulse audio

--ro-bind "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse" "${XDG_RUNTIME_DIR}/pulse" \

Pulse audio.

Screenshots

The default screenshots directory is "$XDG_DESKTOP_DIR" (which is "${HOME}/Desktop/", which will fallback to "$HOME/" if "${HOME}/Desktop/" doesn't exist). That means that by default bwrap-mpv[-net] won't allow screenshots unless you change a few things. Do the following to allow an XDG approved screenshots directory:

...
XDG_CONFIG_HOME="${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}"
XDG_DATA_HOME="${XDG_DATA_HOME:-$HOME/.local/share}"

...
NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_CONFIG_HOME#"$HOME"}"
NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME="${NEW_HOME}${XDG_DATA_HOME#"$HOME"}"

mkdir -pm 0700 "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/mpv/"

...
--setenv XDG_CONFIG_HOME "$NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME" \
--setenv XDG_DATA_HOME "$NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME" \
--setenv XDG_RUNTIME_DIR "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR" \
...
--ro-bind-try "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/mpv/mpv.conf" "${NEW_XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/mpv/mpv.conf" \
--bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/mpv/" "${NEW_XDG_DATA_HOME}/mpv/" \
--ro-bind /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 /lib/ld-musl-x86_64.so.1 \
...

Now make mpv use that directory:

Contents of "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/mpv/mpv.conf"

... # Something like this, change to match "$XDG_DATA_HOME" screenshot-template="~/.local/share/mpv/screenshots/%F [%p] %02n" ...

--bind "${HOME}/Downloads/" "${NEW_HOME}/Downloads/" \

Directory for writing the files. This should match --output that is either in "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME}/yt-dlp/config" or passed on the command line.

/usr/bin/yt-dlp "$@"

This is so you can pass more options to bwrap-yt-dlp, for example:

$ bwrap-yt-dlp --no-playlist 'URL1' 'URL2'

Have to premake the directory for zathura data.

--bind "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/zathura/" "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/zathura/" \

Allow writing of: bookmarks, history, input history.

--ro-bind /usr/share/misc/magic.mgc /usr/share/misc/magic.mgc \

Used for identifying what type a file should be. Read the file(1) man page for more information.

--ro-bind "$1" "$(realpath "$1")" \

Get the absolute pathname using realpath, so you can pass a relative argument and still bind the argument.
