Title:
flashplayer does not work due missing apparmor rule
Status in “firefox” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
I updated to Ubuntu 14.10 recently, and I noticed the flashplayer was
broken.
After some debugging, I noticed there were alot of the following messages in
syslog:
kernel: [56384.537469] audit: type=1400 audit(1411163225.434:2596):
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open"
profile="/usr/lib/firefox/firefox{,*[^s][^h]}" name="/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf"
pid=10890 comm="plugin-containe" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000
ouid=0
Now I simply added the following to the apparmor rules:
/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf r,
And flash started to work perfectly after that.
Guess 99% of the firefox users have flashplayer installed, so I guess
it might be good to have the rule added?
