Title: "Open in Terminal" returns "Text ended before matching quote was found for '" Status in gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Attempting to open a Desktop folder named "aaa'bbb" (without double quotes) using the "Open in Terminal" option from the context menu produces a notification message stating: Execution of "x-terminal-emulator --working-directory=/home/... Text ended before matching quote was found for '. (The text was "x-terminal-emulator --working-directory=/home/x/Desktop/aaa'bbb") This suggests improper escaping (possible security impact with command injection). Steps to reproduce: 1. On the Ubuntu 19.04.0 amd64 Desktop, right-click, and select "New folder" 2. Enter the following folder name and press Enter: aaa'bbb 3. Right-click on the newly created folder icon 4. Select "Open in Terminal" 5. The above notification pops up, no terminal window opens. The expected outcome would be: 5. A terminal window opens in directory ~/Desktop/aaa'bbb ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.04 Package: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons 19.01.1-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.0.0-13.14-generic 5.0.6 Uname: Linux 5.0.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.20.10-0ubuntu27 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Thu Apr 18 18:40:28 2019 InstallationDate: Installed on 2019-04-14 (4 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 19.04 "Disco Dingo" - Alpha amd64 (20190413.2) PackageArchitecture: all SourcePackage: gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell-extension-desktop-icons/+bug/1825396/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
