Title:
won't warn neither prevent usage of « risky » characters in labels
Status in e2fsprogs package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Hi,
if naming or renaming an EXT volume,
e2label lets you use any character, including / or * or $ ( and
probably others, like accented letters é è à )
I'd expect at least a warning if such are to be found in a label name.
Or better, it should not be possible to use those in label names.
Example :
a@p:~$ sudo e2label /dev/sdb12 /Ti\$*
a@p:~$
a@p:~$ sudo e2label /dev/sdb12
/Ti$*
a@p:~$
a@p:~$ lsblk -fe7 | grep sdb12
└─sdb12 ext4 1.0 /Ti$*
