Bash Version: 5.1 Patch Level: 4 Release Status: release Description: I was typing a command and want to use <Tab> to complete a program name after the following code: tig -C "$(dirname "$(base but bash shows me a "bash: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `)'" error. At first I found a similar issue in bash-completion here: https://github.com/scop/bash-completion/issues/189. But as I commented in that issue report, I can reproduce this bug even in vanilla bash. So I am now reporting this bug to bash. Repeat-By: 0. I tried to use the vanilla bash with steps 1-3, they can be skipped 1. Removed `bash-completion` package 2. Moved away my .inputrc for `readline` 3. Start bash with $ bash --noprofile --norc 4. Type (The first $ sign is shell prompt): $ "$(dirname "$(base 5. Press <Tab> key 6. The following message appears: bash: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `)' 7. Type again: $ "$(dirname "$(base 8. Press <Tab> key again 9. The following message appears, and shell quits: free(): double free detected in tcache 2 Aborted (core dumped)
