@ruiromo: this is incorrect, only 19.04 and 19.10 are affected at this point, because they have glibc 2.29. Chromium in 18.04 is not affected, I just successfully tested it.

@Olivier Tilloy:I can confirm, after fresh install and i am back on 18.04LTS(give up 19.04 for now), only Chromium does not run Flash content. It works with Chrome, Opera and Firefox and others based on it. Note: i am seeing other distros starting to get affected also by this bug with Chromium.

[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
It's generally not a good idea to disable any sandbox mechanism unless you really know what you're doing. See https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/HEAD/docs/linux_sandboxing.md #the-sandbox-1 for more information on the seccomp BPF sandbox. There are other mechanisms, but they don't replace seccomp, they work in conjunction with it. If you really need to use flash and can't wait for a fix to be published, I'd recommend using firefox to access that specific site, it's not affected by the bug. Note that a fix is being worked on upstream, and it will be backported to Ubuntu as soon as possible. ** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Olivier Tilloy (osomon) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825497 Title: flash player does not work in chromium To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1825497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
Thank José M. I can confirm the --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox works on Chromium (version 73.0.3683.103-0ubuntu1) on my fresh Lubuntu 19.04 amd64 install. However, I am wondering if it would be dangerous from a security point of view ? Does it expose the system or are there other sandboxing mechanism protecting it instead of seccomp ? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825497 Title: flash player does not work in chromium To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1825497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
@Olivier Tilloy: Thank you for your comment and i was not paying attention to thread #7. I see this is also happening in other distros,and Kernel might not be direct related on this because i had run Fedora 29 lxqt with Kernel 5, and things were working well. And also Xubuntu 19.04, except for Nvidia driver has strange behaviour and flash on "Chromes", all is working well, but i had installation errors, so clean install might clean up things a bit(for my experience 2 leaps in distro upgrade might give you some errors). Please ignore some of my feedback to this has it is very particular to my installation and ignorance :D. Regarding this also and more, i know Flash will be ignored from 2020 on. I only use it for some Facebook games. Still, on LTS Ubuntu and derivates flavours/other distros, it is working well on Chromium and family. @José M. : It did not worked for me, but you will still have to start it all over from command line every time, right? We will wait for new version. TX!

[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
It seems to be a bug related to the latest version of glibc. A small workaround is to add this flag to the command to run Chromium and all derived browsers (Opera, Vivaldi, etc). It worked for me: --disable-seccomp-filter-sandbox In Chrome it doesn't seem to work, we have to wait for a new version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825497 Title: flash player does not work in chromium To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1825497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
@ruiromo: no need to reinstall, the problem won't magically go away. This is an upstream bug (see comment #7). The snap package isn't affected, but for it to work you will need to manually copy libpepflashplayer.so to $HOME/chromium/current/.local/lib/. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825497 Title: flash player does not work in chromium To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1825497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1825497] Re: flash player does not work in chromium
I upgraded my xubuntu 18.04 to 18.10 and then right away to 19.04 2 days ago. After this, Flash player on Firefox works, but on not Chromium and all derivates like Opera, Chrome, etc. I tried to reinstall them all, did all the workarounds that Google and Adobe say on troubleshooting help sites, tried to install and uninstall different packages through Synaptic package manager, clean caches, but no success. I installed a snap version of Chromium from command line, and that one says "plug in not supported", the others are on a permission looping without displaying content. In some time i will o a fresh install of 19.04, because maybe it can be related to installation errors or Kernel version TX! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1825497 Title: flash player does not work in chromium To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1825497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
