Package: ppp Version: 2.4.4rel-9 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Hi! The /etc/ppp/ip-up script does maybe mess up the parameter list when exec'ing an ip-up.local script. When ip-up is called with at least on empty parameter like "", the parameter list passed to ip-up.local is shrinked to the not-empty ones which results in a shrinked list, where the positions are not really predictable. This is the case, because ip-up.local is called with "$*" instead of "$@" or a complete list like the run-parts call. This make ip-up.local unusable when one value passed to ip-up is empty. The version in Etch is affected as well.
