[Bug 1381620] [NEW] apparmor read denial on ~/.cache/QML/Apps/

 

Public bug reported:

I observed the following denials:
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="com.ubuntu.developer.webapps.googleplus_googleplus_0.3" name="/home/phablet/.cache/QML/Apps/" pid=NNN comm="webapp-containe" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=32011 ouid=32011
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" profile="com.ubuntu.developer.webapps.webapp-facebook_webapp-facebook_1.0.26" name="/home/phablet/.cache/QML/Apps/" pid=NNN comm="webapp-containe" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=32011 ouid=32011

Apps should not have read access to the .cache/QML/Apps/ because that
would be a privacy leak. After talking to ricmm on IRC, this is a noisy
denial (ie, the app otherwise functions fine and the cache is used), but
it is something that should be fixed in qtdeclarative-opensource-src to
not confuse users.
