You're right. It seems I am eating my words on that item, the `--no-sandbox` flag does seem to be on in most Linux installs. From context and search, it looks necessary for it to work on Debian.
Can confirm with `cat /usr/share/applications/signal-desktop.desktop`.
This still would require a pretty sophisticated attack to take advantage of, but I wouldn't rule it out as an attack surface. (We regularly see iPhone exploits that attack font and image rendering, after all.)
I'll amend my post given this.
- ementally 2y agoNo worries, but it is a legitimate attack vector given that sandboxing on Linux sucks unlike Windows and macOS, so it is much needed. There's an issue open to provide a flatpak for the app. https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/1639 https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Desktop/issues/1639
