Machine Type: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 4.4
Patch Level: 19
Release Status: release
Description:
Segfault from reading a history file not starting with # with
HISTTIMEFORMAT set and history_multiline_entries nonzero and
with the history cleared and read on the same input line.
Repeat-By:
env -i bash --noprofile --norc
echo $'#1\necho a'>a
echo 'echo b'>b
HISTTIMEFORMAT='%s '
history -r a # force history_multiline_entries to be nonzero
history -c; history -r b # force history_length to be zero when reading
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
Fix:
history_multiline_entries probably shouldn't be sticky over unset
HISTTIMEFORMAT, but here is the minimal fix:
