Public bug reported: I am unsure if the bug is with openssh sftp client or within openssh- sftp-server
When traversing an sftp server, I encounter issues for files and, in particular, directories containing the character "]". Tab completion does not escape the character in sftp shell, however, in bash it will escape the character for tab completion. If I "cd" into a directory that contains the character I cannot get any files with in that directory and I have to rename the directory outside of the sftp shell to remove the character in order to be able to correctly get files. Ex: sftp> cd Movie\ \[1080p]/ sftp> ls Movie.1080p.mp4 sftp> get Movie.1080p.mp4 File "/home/hitsuji/movies/Movie [1080p]/Movie.1080p.mp4" not found. sftp> ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 Package: openssh-client 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.16.0-45.60~14.04.1-generic 3.16.7-ckt14 Uname: Linux 3.16.0-45-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.14.1-0ubuntu3.11 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Tue Aug 11 14:36:00 2015 InstallationDate: Installed on 2015-05-01 (101 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS "Trusty Tahr" - Release amd64 (20150218.1) RelatedPackageVersions: ssh-askpass N/A libpam-ssh N/A keychain N/A ssh-askpass-gnome 1:6.6p1-2ubuntu2 SSHClientVersion: OpenSSH_6.6.1p1 Ubuntu-2ubuntu2, OpenSSL 1.0.1f 6 Jan 2014 SourcePackage: openssh UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: openssh (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug trusty -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to openssh in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483751 Title: Issues traversing a sftp server when files or folders contain the character "]" Status in openssh package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am unsure if the bug is with openssh sftp client or within openssh- sftp-server When traversing an sftp server, I encounter issues for files and, in particular, directories containing the character "]".
