Package: bash
Version: 3.2-5
Severity: normal
Somehow I ended up with text like this in .bash_history:
#1244430190
ls
#12444301941244430177
date
In a 32-bit environment, running history shows a bogus time, as one might
expect:
1 Sun 07 Jun 2009 10:03:10 PM CDT ls
2 Mon 18 Jan 2038 09:14:07 PM CST date
3 Mon 08 Jun 2009 04:59:13 PM CDT history
In a 64-bit environment, it just hangs:
1 Sun 07 Jun 2009 10:03:10 PM CDT ls
ps axf shows the process in the run state, racking up cpu time:
8815 pts/1 Rs+ 0:25 -bash
I first saw this with version 3.2-4, and then reproduced it with 3.2-5.
I tried running bash inside strace and got a continuous stream of seg
fault messages.
