Update of bug #19363 (project coreutils):
Status: None => Invalid
Open/Closed: Open => Closed
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #2:
Closing. The leading \ is indeed a feature, and has been documented in
coreutils md5sum and sha*sum for years when \\ or \n appear in a filename
(although I would like to see \r added to this list). There is no more
elegant solution for handling arbitrary file names, and it is a security hole
if you can't handle arbitrary file names.
