Package: tcsh Version: 6.17.02-4 Severity: normal
tcsh(1) segfaults when prompt includes %j and there are more than 10 jobs. Example: > set prompt="%M %j %#" > sleep 90s & [repeated 10 times] On the 10th invocation, tcsh segfaults, as shown by dmesg: [329726.521173] tcsh[26771]: segfault at 7fff0e0df000 ip 000000000043f58a sp 00007fff0e0dd930 error 6 in tcsh[400000+58000] The segfault can also be provoked by setting the prompt variable to include %j when there are already 10 or more jobs. Problem also occurs on tcsh 6.17.00 (Astron) 2009-07-10 (x86_64-unknown-linux) (tested on Ubuntu 10.10). -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) (ignored: LC_ALL set to C) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages tcsh depends on: ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-5 shared libraries for terminal hand tcsh recommends no packages. tcsh suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
