Bash Version: 3.2 Patch Level: 9 Release Status: release Description: I am trying to patch bash to have it open server sockets. While I was debugging I found a problem with tcp sockets also present in the unmodified bash. bash does not seem to notice that an opened /dev/tcp/$host/$port file descriptor becomes invalid if the connection is closed on the other end. Repeat-By: 1. Open a second console and execute "netcat -l -p 5000" 2. switch back to first console 3. exec 5<>/dev/tcp/localhost/5000 4. echo "Hello World" >&5 5. switch to second console and hit <CTRL-C> 6. switch back to first console 7. echo "Hello World" >&5 8. echo "Hello World" >&5 bash has died _______________________________________________ Bug-bash mailing list Bug-bash@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-bash
