Bug Description
Between package version: 37.0.2062.
and package version: 37.0.2062.
The path checked by Ubuntu's chromium-browser package for policy files has changed. This results in administrator mandated settings not being applied, which should be considered a security vulnerability.
In previous versions of the package, policy files were read from: /etc/chromium-
In the new version of the package, it is reading policy files from: /etc/chromium/
The new package version has dropped the following line from its debian/rules file:
sed -i 's,/etc/
Changed in chromium-browser (Ubuntu): | |
status: | Fix Committed → Fix Released |
Looks like we may need to adjust apparmor policy lines too. I wonder what motivated the path change.
