Bash Version: 5.2

Description:
        One of my Bash scripts started to fail all of a sudden and I was able to narrow down this problem to Bash upgrade itself (via Homebrew on a Mac): from 5.1.16 to 5.2.15.
It looks to me pretty serious: a lot of scripts might be potentially affected.

Thanks for the report. It's an easy fix:
