How to blacklist parent dir and whitelist child dir in firejail
How can I blacklist some directory [a] and whitelist some directory [b], where [b] is a directory inside of [a]?
I'm trying to figure out how to execute a firefox profile in a firejail such that it cannot see other firefox profiles.
Firefox profiles are located in the following directory:
$HOME/.mozilla/firefox/<profile_id>/
So, let's assume I have two profiles
user@host:~$ ls ~/.mozilla/firefox/
everyday_profile
firejailed_profile
user@host:~$
I've tried to execute firefox in a firejail where ~/.mozilla/firefox/firejailed_profile is in the whitelist and ~/.mozilla/firefox/everyday_profile is in the blacklist, but it doesn't work.
# this doesn't work
firejail --whitelist="$HOME/.mozilla/firefox/firejailed_profile" --blacklist="$HOME/.mozilla/firefox/*" firefox
Unfortunately, when I execute the above command, firefox can't find any firefox profile.
How can I fix the firejail command above, such that the whitelist has priority over the blacklist (so the child directory is in the whitelist and its parent directory is in the blacklist)?
