Why is vdhcoapp accessing installed firefox extensions? #19

Closed Johann-Tree closed 6 years ago

lsof -p lists the XPI-files of installed firefox extensions. Why is vdhcoapp accessing them?

Using Ubuntu 16.04.3 with net.downloadhelper.coapp 1.1.1

vdhcoapp does not access any XPI, but this is a native app and as such, its process is launched by Firefox which needs to open the XPI files.
