Title:
  change_profile requires separate permission rule to access /proc
  interface

Status in AppArmor Linux application security framework:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  
  When a profile contains a rule granting permission to use the change_profile interface

    Eg.
    change_profile -> **,

  it is not enough permissions to actually use the interface, because write permission to access the interface at
     /proc/self/attr/{current,exec} w,

  is also needed.

  If a change_profile rule is present it should imply that this
  permission is granted
