Hi,
While developing `usr.bin.skypeforlinux` (for the new Skype version, it's an Electron app) profile on Ubuntu 17.10 VM, I
have discovered file_inherit denies which I would like to understand with your help.
`usr.bin.skypeforlinux` profile has these lines to allow executing
`/usr/bin/locale`:
```
/{,usr}/bin/locale Cx -> locale,
profile locale {
#include <abstractions/base>
/{,usr}/bin/locale mr,
}
```
`/usr/bin/locale` is executed by `/usr/share/skypeforlinux/skypeforlinux` like
this:
```
5024 execve("/usr/bin/locale", ["/usr/bin/locale", "-a"], ["CLUTTER_IM_MODULE=xim",
"LS_COLORS=rs=0:di=01;34:ln=01;36:mh=00:pi=40;33:so=01;35:do=01;35:bd=40;33;01:cd=40;33;01:or=40;31;01:mi=00:su=37;41:sg=30;43:ca=30;41:tw=30;42:ow=34;42:st=37;44:ex=01;32:*.tar=01;31:*.tgz=01;31:*.arc=01;31:*.arj=01;31:*.taz=01;31:*.lha=01;31:*.lz4=01;31:*.lzh=01;31:*.lzma=01;31:*.tlz=01;31:*.txz=01;31:*.tzo=01;31:*.t7z=01;31:*.zip=01;31:*.z=01;31:*.Z=01;31:*.dz=01;31:*.gz=01;31:*.lrz=01;31:*.lz=01;31:*.lzo=01;31:*.xz=01;31:*.zst=01;31:*.tzst=01;31:*.bz2=01;31:*.bz=01;31:*.tbz=01;31:*.tbz2=01;31:*.tz=01;31:*.deb=01;31:*.rpm=01;31:*.jar=01;31:*.war=01;31:*.ear=01;31:*.sar=01;31:*.rar=01;31:*.alz=01;31:*.ace=01;31:*.zoo=01;31:*.cpio=01;31:*.7z=01;31:*.rz=01;31:*.cab=01;31:*.jpg=01;35:*.jpeg=01;35:*.mjpg=01;35:*.mjpeg=01;35:*.gif=01;35:*.bmp=01;35:*.pbm=01;35:*.pgm=01;35:*.ppm=01;35:*.tga=01;35:*.xbm=01;35:*.xpm=01;35:*.tif=01;35:*.tiff=01;35:*.png=01;35:*.svg=01;35:*.svgz=01;35:*.mng=01;35:*.pcx=01;35:*.mov=01;35:*.mpg=01;35:*.mpeg=01;35:*.m2v=01;35:*.mkv=01;35:*.webm=01;35:*.ogm=01;35:*.mp4=01;35:*.m4v=01;35:*"...,

```
In the result, I get bunch of denies with `operation="file_inherit"`:

```
I've checked with `sysdig` what files actually `locale` accesses like this:
```
sudo sysdig -p"%evt.type %evt.info" "proc.name=locale and evt.category=file"
```
And no, it does not actually opens files from `/usr/share/skypeforlinux/*`, etc.
So, basically, what's happening here? Is it because `skypeforlinux` executed child process in some "special" way, or
it's just "natural" way of how Linux applications work..? There was recent bug report for Thunderbird that child process
file_inherit's some .js file [0]. Why one Earth it should be that special one file only, Thnderbird probably had opend
much more files at the time of child is being run?
How this generally should be handled in child profiles, simply manually add denies..? Is it possible to deny all of
these file_inherit somehow?
Additionally, there is that strange "apparmor="DENIED" operation="getattr" info="Failed name lookup - disconnected path"
error=-13 profile="skypeforlinux//locale" name="apparmor/.null" pid=4354 comm="locale" requested_mask="r"
denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 ouid=0" on the last deny, is this related to file_inherit too? What's that "apparmor/.null" ?
Sorry for rather big questionaire, but I would really nice to clear these
things up.
Thanks!
