Your justification seems reasonable. It does mean that we'll need
always quote rules that use def->name and looking at virt-aa-helper.c,
that seems to be the case.
All that said, I was surprised that tests/virt-aa-helper-test didn't
need to be updated, but, indeed, this is a testing gap.
+1 as is, but perhaps in a follow-up patch you could expand bad to be:
const char *bad = "/[]{}?^,\"*";
'{', '}', '?', '^', ',' and '"' are characters used in AARE (see
'Globbing' in 'man apparmor.d') and add tests to tests/virt-aa-helper-
test for this.
Thanks!
