Correct. There are actually several ways to get disconnected paths and this specific one is being caused by the new file ns. The proper fix for this is delegating access to the object that would not normally be accessible, however delegation is not available in the current releases of apparmor and the HACK of attach disconnected is being used to work around this.
As for apparmor not complaining about disconnected path failures, it should be unless attach disconnected is specified. The info field in the apparmor audit message will be info="Failed name lookup - disconnected path" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1373070 Title: full fix for disconnected path (paths) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups/+bug/1373070/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
