The current Firefox AppArmor profile includes the "openssl" abstraction,
which allows access to /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf. This bug should no longer
be present in Ubuntu.

Title:
  flashplayer does not work due missing apparmor rule

Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  I updated to Ubuntu 14.10 recently, and I noticed the flashplayer was
  broken.

  After some debugging, I noticed there were alot of the following messages in 
syslog:
  kernel: [56384.537469] audit: type=1400 audit(1411163225.434:2596): 
apparmor="DENIED" operation="open" 
profile="/usr/lib/firefox/firefox{,*[^s][^h]}" name="/etc/ssl/openssl.cnf" 
pid=10890 comm="plugin-containe" requested_mask="r" denied_mask="r" fsuid=1000 
ouid=0

  Now I simply added the following to the apparmor rules:
  /etc/ssl/openssl.cnf r,

  And flash started to work perfectly after that.

  Guess 99% of the firefox users have flashplayer installed, so I guess
  it might be good to have the rule added?
