I'm trying to figure out Apparmor,in doing so I've seen that there are no pre-configured profiles for Iceweasel,but there are two for Firefox in /usr/share/doc/apparmor-profiles/extras/ : Will it work if I simply replace "iceweasel" for "firefox" and set those profiles to complain mode,just to see what will eventually happen? Is that too obvious?
View 9 RepliesIs there something that has changed from Windows 10 to Windows 10.1?
So on my computers I have Linux/OSX + Windows
Typically I have housed the FF profile (and TB for that matter) on the NTFS partition. This has worked for many years and so no matter which OS I load, I start of at the same place I ended.
But since I installed Win 10.1, I don't use Windows that often, but when I do I feel that for some reason, FF is not picking up the profile info. Add-ons are missing. Session restore not the same. (There are similar issues with TB as well).
Starting around two weeks ago, Iceweasel began closing at unpredictable intervals for no apparent reason. When I ran it in GDB, it came up as a segfault, though the backtraces were different each time. It would even do this in safe mode, though it generally took longer. Icedove began doing the same thing around the same time.
So, I decided to reset my profile and start over. But now it's still segfaulting, even in safe mode.
A cursory use of memtester didn't turn up anything unusual.
Could it be some browser addon that is causing problems even when it's not activated?
If so, why is Icedove doing the same thing occasionally?
The biggest problem is that it's intermittent, so I would have to use my browser with a new profile for a long time before I could confirm that the problem is actually fixed.
Iceweasel will not start, saying :
(process:12904): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_slice_set_config: assertion 'sys_page_size == 0' failed
Error: Access was denied while trying to open files in your profile directory.
but only for my userid. What home directory resources are required to start?
Is recommended to create a profile in apparmor for applications like amule, firefox, thunderbird, amsn ....?
View 7 Replies View RelatedAnyone set up an Apparmor profile for Firefox?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to understand the Apparmor and would like to get FF profile from Bodhi.zazen [thank you],but I'm kinda new to Linux.Did lots of reading but missing one thing:
1.where is FF profile? I can't see any usr.lib.firefox-3.6.12
2. how do I do copy FF profile from Bodhi.zazen?
When I enable a new AppArmor profile that is not in the kernel, I've used this command:
Code:
apparmor_parser -r /path/to/profile
But when I recently read the manual for AppArmor, it says to use this command for new profiles:
Code:
apparmor_parser -a /path/to/profile
Have I done something wrong by using -r instead of -a?
Since Ubuntu 9.10 I used:
"sudo apt-get install apparmor-profiles
sudo enforce firefox"
However in Lubuntu 11.04 the "sudo enforce firefox" command does no longer work. It looks like the enforce command is no longer recognised.
i was trying to edit my firefox apparmor profile. I used aa-genprof, and accidentally closed the terminal before the program was finished. Firefox wouldn't load properly after that whenever it was enforced. I uninstalled and reinstalled the profiles, but it didn't help.Finally I deleted the files for the profile itself ... now it will not reinstall them..I marked all the apparmor packages for complete removal and then reinstalled them but it will not put the original firefox profile back in.

View 4 Replies View RelatedThis page [URL] shows how to enable apparmor firefox profile. Why isnt apparmor firefox profile enabled by default? I would postulate that this would be because there must be some limitation by having the profile enabled. If so, what would the limitation be?
View 9 Replies View RelatedI've read and re-read everything I can find about AppArmor, to no avail. On the whole, AppArmor isn't for me. However, rather than give up on it completely, I have an idea: create a profile that I could use as a template for any untrusted application, with the aim of 1) blocking it from network access and 2) blocking it from installing other applications. I've got as far as creating an empty profile:
Code:
# Generic AppArmor Profile for UntrustedApplication
#include <tunables/global>
/usr/sbin/UntrustedApplication {
#include <abstractions/base> }
What do I need to add to make this profile 100% permissive, except for the two exceptions stated above?
I have quiet splash disabled so I can see what boot processes are run on startup, and I notice that on every time I boot my computer the Firefox profile is skipped. Here's the message: Code: Skipping profile in /etc/ apparmor.d/disable: usr.bin.firefox,I checked /etc/apparmor.d/disable, and see that there is indeed a link to usr.bin.firefox. So I'm wondering how/why it got there. I haven't touched anything in AppArmor since my clean install of Natty.

Also, will Swiftfox 3.6.4 be able to use this same profile? I thought it might not because of the new "Out of process plugins" feature being added.
I am new to linux but will try and be as precise as I can. I have a Dell Insp. 1545 with 3GB ram with 10.04_64
Problem: Rather out of the blue upon login, from the time of entering password to the desktop, is MUCH slower. I have no splash enabled and there is some reference to AppArmour profiles (it sits there at this apparmour reference , then sits trying to load desktop). However, I have never configured apparmor. Finally, on last login, there was some sort of screen corruption prior to getting to desktop.
Prior to all this i noticed that firefox "blinked" when I was using it, and then said that it needed to shutdown/restart for updates. I did notice at that time two of my previous tabs sortof acted oddly (moved around then disappeared).
I have no SSH/Server software etc activated.
I did change visudo so that sudo timeout shorter than it was. However that is the only modification to the system recently.
A recent update to Iceweasel 5 (version 5.0-6 ) on my debian (Linux xxxxx 3.0.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Sun Jul 24 02:24:44 UTC 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux) led to a rather odd an annoying behavior. Each time I try to open an external file (pdf, odt) or to save a file on the hard drive, then Iceweasel crashes systematically. Does anyone experience the same? Any idea of how to fix this?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm a Windows user, but now trying to migrate to Ubuntu. I have read AppArmor Docs/FAQs, and very impressed with it's possibilities. But I'm still not sure, can I have a profile which is applied to all applications I run (not listed in other profiles)? That would be great to have a "Simple Application" default profile, with permissions, say, to read/write to app's folder and to display graphics/play sounds!

Last night I started my computer and loaded my CentOS 5.2 partition (Windows 7 on the other partition). I was able to login to my account, but was given a gnome error that the panel buttons (i.e. weather, cpu monitor etc) could not be loaded. I then went to restart the computer (probably not the smartest thing to do) and was given some file errors upon shutdown that were related to /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00. After restart I was taken to a shell and ran fsck manually. It seemed to find a lot of bad blocks, so I repaired the /dev/VolGroup00 system and restarted. At this point CentOS seemed to boot normally, but upon loading of the login screen I get the error: Configuration not correct The configuration file contains an invalid command line for the login dialog, so running the default command. Please fix your configuration.
I cannot even log in as root. I get the error /usr/bin/gnome-session: error while loading shared libraries: libgnome-desktop-2.so.2: cannot open shared objects file: no such file or directory. I then went to a shell and ran: sudo yum install libgnome-desktop-2.so.2, but the package was already installed and up to date, so there was nothing to do. I am therefore stuck at this login screen with pull-down menus and tabs where I can change the configuration, add/remove users etc. So, my question is this: How do I restore my user profile so I can login....and if anyone has some insight, what caused this to happen in the first place? I should also mention, this all happened after plugging the computer into a new internet connection. No clue if that's even relevant.
How do I share default profile file by NIS so that I do not have to setup profile in every NIS clients?

I am running Debian testing on my box and iceweasel 5 with several addons. My question is the following: is there a way to export above all my addons settings to a file? I would like to be able to install on another debian machine the same iceweasel 5 and have the same addons installed (if I could have even the same toolbar it would be dream) automatically.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been wondering what's the advantages and disadvantages of installing an iceweasel extension from the debian repositories vs the addons.mozilla.org website. I can thus far see that extensions installed from the repositories can't be uninstalled from inside iceweasel. Is there any difference? Are they installed in different places? Are they always accessible to all users? Any difference at all?

The browser just freezes when I point it to a PDF file. Reader is installed and shows up among Iceweasel's add-ons.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI just installed Debian on a new computer yesterday, it's more or less a fresh install. This morning I launched Iceweasel and it brought my computer to it's knees. I ran top, and found out that there was a process called "Web Content" using up 30 gigs of memory! Further experimentation shows that Iceweasel is fine until I open up a tab or two, and then it quickly begins consuming all my memory (I have 24 gigs) and swap space. I'm currently using Chrome, which is working fine, but I'd really prefer Iceweasel.

View 14 Replies View RelatedA few days ago, I noticed that flash wasn't working. I don't use flash often and have Flashblock guarding the gates so not quite sure when that happened. In the process of getting it running again I noticed a lot of Iceweasel add-ons are available in the Debian repos. In fact, deleting Flashblock from Firefox and switching to the one from the repos may be what fixed the problem (or it could have been the latest Iceweasel update which I reinstalled).
Anyway, my question is . . . just how do add-ons available via Synaptic and those from Firefox differ? And is it preferable and advisable to use the ones in Synaptic? Since I imported my old profile from Firefox to Iceweasel, I have a lot of standard add-ons rather than the Debian version.
