Description:
When opening a docx,xlsx,pptx file, LibreOffice tries to access my Firefox's certificate store and keychain (as reported by default AppArmor rules provided by Canonical on Ubuntu 18.04)
Said files has no digital signature to check, if it were the case, it would be required to use system's certificate store and/or seahorse's certificate store.

Affected versions are 6.0.3 provided by Canonical and 6.0.6 provided by document foundation launchpad PPA.

There are no visible reasons for LibreOffice to try to read anything from Firefox.

Here are the logs produced by AppArmor when opening such files :

home/Magissia/.mozilla/firefox/mwad0hks.default/cert8.db" pid=19509 comm="soffice.bin" requested_mask="w" denied_mask="w" fsuid=1000 ouid=1000
