Electrum AppArmor Profiles
AppArmor is a Mandatory Access Control (MAC) system which confines programs to a limited set of resources. AppArmor confinement is provided via profiles loaded into the kernel.
Installation
Copy the AppArmor profile from contrib/apparmor/apparmor.d/ to /etc/apparmor.d/:
sudo cp -R -L contrib/apparmor/apparmor.d/* /etc/apparmor.d
Reload the AppArmor profiles to apply the changes:
sudo systemctl reload apparmor
Verify that the profile is loaded:
sudo apparmor_status
Look for the entry corresponding to electrum
Usage
After installing the AppArmor profile, electrum will be restricted to the permissions specified in the profile.
Compatibility
The help tab may not function as expected as browser permissions can be tricky (Tarball Binaries)
These AppArmor profiles have been tested on the following operating systems:
Debian 12
Ubuntu 23.10
Kali Linux 6.6
