Dear Friends,

it happen to see Firefox and tor bundle browser (linux64) both demand 
for sys_admin capabilities, see man 7 capabilitites.

Why exactly they need the sys_admin caps?

What happens if denied the requested capabilities for example with 
SE_Linux you can deny. Would that deny harm tor browser? Does run 
withouth sys_admin?

Thank you very much
Mr. Dobalina
