Package: lvm2 Version: 2.02.66-5 Severity: grave Justification: causes non-serious data loss
I noticed that when I ran 'lvremove' on a LV I wanted to remove that I was able to type anything followed by the 'y' char and this would pass the 'are you sure' prompt. Here is an example, which I ran on a real system: root@vmdev3:/home/dblack# lvremove /dev/vmdev3-vg0/indexing.bepress.com-* Do you really want to remove active logical volume indexing.bepress.com-swap? [y/n]: noy Logical volume "indexing.bepress.com-swap" successfully removed Do you really want to remove active logical volume indexing.bepress.com-disk? [y/n]: ny Logical volume "indexing.bepress.com-disk" successfully removed In other words, the idiot-proofing is broken and this could easily lead to an LV being deleted and data loss. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.3 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-xen-amd64 (SMP w/12 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lvm2 depends on: ii dmsetup 2:1.02.48-5 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.48-5 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libreadline5 5.2-7 GNU readline and history libraries ii libudev0 164-3 libudev shared library ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip lvm2 recommends no packages. lvm2 suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
