bash (4.2-5ubuntu3) raring; urgency=low
* Merge with Debian.
bash (4.2-5.3) unstable; urgency=low
* Apply upstream patches 038 - 045, fixes for
- If a backslash-newline (which is removed) with no other input is given as
input to `read', the shell tries to dereference a null pointer and
segfaults.
- Under certain circumstances, bash attempts to expand variables in
arithmetic expressions even when evaluation is being suppressed.
- Output redirection applied to builtin commands missed I/O errors if
they happened when the file descriptor was closed, rather than on write
(e.g., like with an out-of-space error on a remote NFS file system).
- Process substitution incorrectly inherited a flag that inhibited using the
(local) temporary environment for variable lookups if it was providing
the filename to a redirection. The intent the flag is to enforce the
Posix command expansion ordering rules.
- Compilation failed after specifying the `--enable-minimal-config' option
to configure (more specifically, specifying `--disable-alias').
- When SIGCHLD is trapped, and a SIGCHLD trap handler runs when a pending
`read -t' invocation times out and generates SIGALRM, bash can crash with
a segmentation fault.
- When converting a multibyte string to a wide character string as part of
pattern matching, bash does not handle the end of the string correctly,
causing the search for the NUL to go beyond the end of the string and
reference random memory. Depending on the contents of that memory, bash
can produce errors or crash.
- The <&n- and >&n- redirections, which move one file descriptor to another,
leave the file descriptor closed when applied to builtins or compound
commands.
