Bug 135908 – Opening Web Inspector causes a large amount of sandbox violations

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit2

[Joseph Pecoraro]

* SUMMARY
Opening Web Inspector causes a large amount of "deny file-issue-extension" sandbox violations:

>    com.apple.WebKit(93849) deny file-issue-extension /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WebInspectorUI.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Main.html
>    com.apple.WebKit(93849) deny file-issue-extension /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WebInspectorUI.framework/Versions/A/Resources/CodeMirror.css
>    com.apple.WebKit(93849) deny file-issue-extension /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/WebInspectorUI.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Main.css
>    ...

* NOTES
This doesn't happen with local builds which does not use /S/L/PF/WebInspectorUI.framework but instead your own built WebInspectorUI.framework.

Do we also need to add /System/Library/StagedFrameworks/Safari/WebInspectorUI.framework?

[Alexey Proskuryakov]

r=me as well.

We shouldn't need StagedFrameworks, because WebInspectorUI.framework ends up being in the same directory as WebKit.framework, and thus the existing rule does the trick:

(allow-read-directory-and-issue-read-extensions (param "WEBKIT2_FRAMEWORK_DIR"))
