Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 12.04 LTS I get the following error whenever I use the File->Open
Containing Folder feature.
Could not open the containing folder.
Failed to execute child process "pcmanfm" (Permission denied)
This is precisely bug #864992, but for LXDE instead of Gnome.
The problem is fixed for LXDE (and presumably KDE and XFCE) by
replacing "/usr/bin/nautilus Cx -> sanitized_helper" with the following
to /etc/apparmor.d/usr.bin.evince
/usr/bin/nautilus Cx -> sanitized_helper, #Gnome File Manager
/usr/bin/pcmanfm Cx -> sanitized_helper, #LXDE File Manager
/usr/bin/krusader Cx -> sanitized_helper, #KDE File Manager
/usr/bin/thunar Cx -> sanitized_helper, #XFCE File Manager
(and then running: "sudo /etc/init.d/apparmor reload")
As with bug #864992 the chance of a regression is low, and it should not
increase the attack surface in the slightest unless pcmanfm, krusader or
thunar were installed (they wouldn't exist in a default Ubuntu install,
unless the user manually installed them, in which case the user probably
wants to be allowed to use them).
