BertN45 you can read this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/AppArmor
As I understand it, an AppArmor profile on a program restricts what it can do 
to your computer, whereas without AppArmor or something similar to it, a 
program will have unrestricted access to your computer (except for what 
requires root). Do correct me if I'm wrong Olivier...

If you want this security back then you can install the LibreOffice snap
and remove the LibreOffice Deb with `snap install libreoffice ; sudo apt
remove libreoffice* ; sudo apt autoremove` but be warned that the
LibreOffice snap has a number of bugs that don't exist in the Deb ( see
here:

)

Title:
  libreoffice cannot open a document not within $HOME

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  Starting with today's update to LibreOffice 5.4.5.1 40m0(Build:1),
  files not within the user $HOME directory cannot be opened. This has
  nothing to do with ownership or permissions - the target document is
  owned by the user with full permissions. Moving the file to ~/Desktop
  allows it to be opened normally.

  Error message in popup window:
    Access to /home2/mico/documents/personal/2018 lists.ods was denied.

  Error message when launched from terminal:
  $: localc "2018 lists.ods"
  javaldx: Could not find a Java Runtime Environment!
  Please ensure that a JVM and the package libreoffice-java-common is installed.
  If it is already installed then try removing 
~/.libreoffice/3/user/config/javasettings_Linux_*.xml
  Warning: failed to read path from javaldx

  The file mentioned in the error message does not exist.
  I removed the corresponding file under ~/.libreoffice/4/ but that makes no 
difference.

  This but started in Ubuntu 18.04 (alpha) around Feb. 15, and with
  today's update (Feb. 22) it appeared in Ubuntu 17.10.
