---------------
nvidia-graphics-drivers-319-updates (319.60-0ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low
[ Andy Dick ]
* debian/templates/nvidia-graphics-drivers.preinst.in:
- Attempt uninstallation of any existing .run file
installation before installing Debian-packaged
driver.
* debian/templates/nvidia-graphics-drivers.postinst.in:
- Add libcuda.so symlinks in /usr/lib*.
* debian/rules:
- Conditionalize the copying of Makefile.kbuild to
Makefile. This adds support for newer drivers,
while maintaining support for packaging older drivers.
- Avoid extracting unnecessary .run files. The 64-bit
package needs both the 32- and 64-bit .run files, but
the 32-bit package does not. Change the unpackaging
rules to unpack only the native package by default,
and only unpack the 32-bit x86 package on amd64.
Also, instead of changing the .run file permissions
to ensure that the .run file is executable, just call
it as an argument to sh.
- Don't assume that extracted files are writable.
The package contents extracted from some .run file
installers may not have write permissions enabled.
To work around this, move files instead of copying
them to a temporary location before running sed
scripts, and add force flags to applicable commands.
* New upstream release:
- Added support for the following GPU:
o GeForce GTX 760 Ti OEM
- Fixed a bug that could cause OpenGL applications to
crash during the initialization of new threads.
- Fixed a bug that caused the GPU and Memory clock
frequencies for some PowerMizer performance levels
on Kepler boards to be reported incorrectly in the
nvidia-settings control panel.
- Fixed a bug that caused the X server to fail to
start on certain laptops when the boot display was
on an external DisplayPort monitor, for example if
the laptop was booted while the lid was closed.
- Fixed a bug in nvidia-installer that caused the
32-bit libGL.la libtool library file to be
installed to the wrong location.
- Updated the NVIDIA OpenGL driver to write temporary
files to $TMPDIR if it is set, instead of
unconditionally writing to /tmp (LP: #1212425).
- Updated a fallback of writing temporary files to
$HOME/.nvidia to use $HOME/.nv instead, as the
latter path is already used for other NVIDIA driver
related files.

Bug description:
Nvidia desktop users need the following AppArmor permissions to avoid denials:
owner /tmp/gl* mrw,
But this rule breaks application confinement such that apps are able
to tamper with each other. Interestingly, apps still run without the
rule, so we can explicitly deny it for now.
The use of /tmp is apparently hardcoded and does not honor TMPDIR
(application confinement will setup TMPDIR to a private area for the app).
strace confirms this:
24603 mkdir("/tmp", 0777) = -1 EEXIST (File exists)
24603 open("/tmp/glBRPYmm", O_RDWR|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0600) = -1 EACCES
(Permission denied)
While the use of O_EXCL is safe, we don't allow access to /tmp for
confined apps and libraries/applications should always honor TMPDIR.
