If I run the following:
firejail brave-browser
And then try and access files in the browser (such as when uploading a file), Brave still has access to my entire home folder.
Usually this doesn't happen with Firejail. I've tried it with Firefox, and it only gives access to the ~/Downloads
folder.
I've verified Firejail is running with firejail --list
:
18974:daniel::firejail /usr/bin/brave-browser-stable
So I'm not sure what the problem is. The exact same command works with Firefox, so why isn't it hiding files with Brave?
