Public bug reported: Ubuntu Mate LTS is my favorite linux distro but it has a big security hole that I hope developers fix for 22.04. It installs by default 2 unconfined snaps (Software Boutique and Welcome). Software Boutique can be replaced by the regular Software app from Gnome, and Welcome is irrelevant as it only has eye-candy features. If the account of snap maintainer is hacked it could upload malware to everyone with the permissions of the user account.
