Public bug reported: Until we have a proper trust-store implementation with snappy and on the desktop/ubuntu core we want pulseaudio to simply deny any audio recording request coming from an app shipped as part of a snap.
The implementation adds a module-snappy-policy module to pulseaudio which adds a hook for audio recording requests and checks on connection if the apparmor security label of the connecting peer starts with "snap." which will identify it as a snap application. Pulseaudio with the patch is available as part of the landing request at https://requests.ci-train.ubuntu.com/#/ticket/1428 ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1583057 Title: Deny audio recording for all snap applications To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1583057/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
