=== REQUEST FOR STABLE RELEASE UPDATE === 1. While the bug does no harm (it exits with error because the netmask is invalid), it is confusing for end users to see a python traceback
2. This has been addressed by adjusted src/ufw to return 'False' in valid_address() with non-integer netmasks, allowing ufw to provide a helpful message rather than a traceback. 3. Patch to src/ufw is 2 lines (without whitespace or comments) and very minimal. Build tests have been updated as well to verify more valid and invalid netmask combinations. 4. TEST CASE: sudo ufw allow to 192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 5. It is believed there is no regression potential ** Attachment added: "ufw_0.16.3.debdiff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14425090/ufw_0.16.3.debdiff -- ufw ValueError when supplying dotted-decimal netmask https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/224842 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
