The commits that fix these issues are in apparmor 2.10

r2867 - wrong handling of \x00 by the compiler
r2866 - wrong handling of the * and ** globs for abstract socket names

In adddition
in 2.9 contains r2248 - which allows a fixed alternation depth by setting the define MAX_ALT_DEPTH, this could be increased to a value larger the 110 max byte length of the abstract socket.

Bug description:
  On Ubuntu 14.10, I had this in my logs:
  Jan 21 16:32:30 localhost kernel: [24900.927939] audit: type=1400 audit(1421879550.441:534): apparmor="DENIED" operation="bind" profile="/usr/lib/firefox/firefox{,*[^s][^h]}" pid=12356 comm="plugin-containe" family="unix" sock_type="dgram" protocol=0 requested_mask="bind" denied_mask="bind" addr="@676F6F676C652D6E61636C2D6F316431323335362D3339310000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000"

  $ aa-decode 676F6F676C652D6E61636C2D6F316431323335362D3339310000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

  $ aa-decode 676F6F676C652D6E61636C2D6
  Decoded: google-nacl-`

  So I tried the following:
  unix bind type=dgram addr=@google-nacl*,
  unix bind type=dgram addr="@google-nacl*",
  unix bind type=dgram addr=@676F6F676C652D6E61636C2D6*,
  unix bind type=dgram addr="@676F6F676C652D6E61636C2D6*",
  unix bind type=dgram addr=@google-nacl*\\000*,
  unix bind type=dgram addr=@google-nacl*[0-9a-zA-Z]\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000\\000{,\\000,\\000\\000},

  
  but none of them match. The best I could do was:
  unix bind type=dgram,

  This is likely going to be important for snappy since snappy will have the concept of different coordinating snaps interacting via abstract sockets. What is interesting is that this seems to work ok for some things, eg:
  ./lightdm:  unix (bind, listen) type=stream addr="@/com/ubuntu/upstart-session/**",
  ./lightdm:  unix (bind, listen) type=stream addr="@/tmp/dbus-*",
  ./lightdm:  unix (bind, listen) type=stream addr="@/tmp/.ICE-unix/[0-9]*",
  ./lightdm:  unix (bind, listen) type=stream addr="@/dbus-vfs-daemon/*",
  ./lightdm:  unix (bind, listen) type=stream addr="@guest*",

  Is this something in how firefox is setting up the socket?

  To reproduce, enable the firefox profile, start firefox and try to
  attend a google hangout.
