Machine Type: sparc-sun-solaris2.7
Bash Version: 2.03
Patch Level: 0
Release Status: release
Description:
Bash may inadvertently execute a command that the user did not
anticipate
if STDIN is closed.
Repeat-By:
Unfortunately I can't construct a test case that doesn't need
our local s/ware.
But the problem is ...
When bash reads input (in interactive mode) if it gets EOF
it then executes any partial command that is in the input buffer - even
though <CR>
has not been entered by the user
Fix:
Incomplete commands should not be executed - they can have disasterous
results.
Example:
If the command being entered were "rm -rf
/home/username/tmp/junk"
but the input is terminated just at the point where username
has been
entered then the user's /home dircetory is trashed.
