Bug#1008235: Acknowledgement (bash: corrupting variables containing long unicode content)
I have just upgraded to debian version 11.3. Bug is still there: root@orion:~# cat /etc/debian_version 11.3 root@orion:~# ./make_test.sh there is a BUG on your system... -xx-x--x-- 1 5551 2022-03-11 14:45:33.671864216 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378649_01_Ł�xx -xx-x--x-- 1 5551 2022-03-11 14:45:33.671864216 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378649_01_Śxx -xx-x--x-- 1 2194 2022-03-16 15:45:30.808233919 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378884_11_łx0 -xx-x--x-- 1 2194 2022-03-16 15:45:30.808233919 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378884_11_Ł�x0 -xx-x--x-- 1 2927 2022-03-14 13:00:29.878538837 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378748_01_Ł�xx -xx-x--x-- 1 2927 2022-03-14 13:00:29.878538837 +0100 ../x_//_x/xx_378748_01_Śxx root@orion:~# bash --version GNU bash, wersja 5.1.4(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu) root@orion:~# dpkg -l | grep bash ii bash 5.1-2+b3 amd64 GNU Bourne Again SHell I think this sould be marked as critical bug or security threat. Please tell what should we do: -- wait a few more days and upgrade system again -- or backport bash from next release?

I believe this is the same bug as reported in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1003012 and upstream in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2022-01/msg0.html Hmm... looks sililar. Thank you. So what should we do now? Upgrade bash from testing? Or wait until stable debian is upgraded? I am afraid of silent data corruption on production server where we use debian stable...

Bug#1008235: Acknowledgement (bash: corrupting variables containing long unicode content)
Some more tests were done on: - ubuntu 22.04 (5.15.0-23) - ubuntu 20.04 (5.13.0-35) - fedora 35 (5.14.10-300) - debian 10 (4.19.0-19) - debian 11 (5.10.0-11) - bash 5.1-2 - debian testing (5.16.0-5) Error is only on debian 11. If you upgrade bash 5.1-2 to 5.1-6 then but is resolved. So the bug maybe is only in bash version 5.1-2
