[QUOTE="wat0114, post: 1042553, member: 91306"] Absolutely best advice. This is one of the reasons I like and use Apparmor in Linux for my browsers. The profile for librewolf only allows the one addon I use, uBlock Origin, to be installed or updated, and run. As an example, if i tried to install any other addon, or if malware were to try the same, Apparmor will block it. Just for demo purposes, when I tried to install Feedbro addon: [ATTACH alt="apparmor extension block.png"]275824[/ATTACH] The syslog entry: [code]apparmor="DENIED" operation="mknod" profile="/usr/share/librewolf/librewolf" name="/home/user/.librewolf/zgzvybte.default-default/extensions/staged/{a9c2ad37-e940-4892-8dce-cd73c6cbbc0c}.xpi"[/code] If for some reason I wanted to install additional addon(s), I would have to create new Apparmor rules for them.
