I do have an alias with `&& exit` in it, but removing that alias doesn't get rid of the bug. I've tested it on another system (Xubuntu 24.04, stock install), and the issue didn't occur.
Narrowed it down to the line `eval "$(fasd --init auto)"` in my .bashrc. Must be some kindof bug with fasd (https://github.com/whjvenyl/fasd). Any idea how fasd could cause `;exit` to be interpreted as a valid command? Running `alias exit` shows that it's not aliased to anything. Weird that fasd causes `;exit` to be a valid command, and also that it causes bash to execute it when loading if it's the last thing in the history file. I'll raise a bug report on the fasd GitHub. Apologies for the erroneous report.
