Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.41.12-2
Severity: critical
--- Please enter the report below this line. ---
Hello,
I wanted very quickly to know number of used/free inodes in my root ext4
fs and tried "sudo fsck /dev/sda1", where /dev/sda1 was mounted root fs.
I expected result something like:
1) /dev/sda1: clean, 14884540/14884864 files [...]
2) or readonly check and statistics displayed when finished
3) or failure because the fs is mounted
Now I know this was bad idea (especially sudo) but that time I thought
it is safe and if it will not work I find another solution - I was in a
hurry and short thinking. I saw a big fat warning about severe
filesystem damage if I will continue and so I opened fsck man page in
other terminal and found desired -nf options. I switched back and press
the up arrow key to make command corrections. I forgot I did not cancel
the confirmation prompt, and the up key was interpreted as: Yes,
continue and cause severe damage to my root fs :).
I admit this was caused by my stupidity, but interpreting the up key as
positive answer to this very dangerous confirmation question is IMO
serious bug.
This bug appears only with cs_CZ locale as in Czech language there is
(a/n) instead of English (y/n). The up arrow key is interpreted as 'a'
answer for unknown reason. Maybe is it interpreted as a 'A' because the
up key produces ^[[A sequence if I press ctrl+V <up arrow key>?
Sorry if you feel critical severity is too high for this bug, I just
follow reportbug-ng hints about bug severities (this bug may cause
severe data damage).
Cheers, Petr

Closes: 619788 619859
Changes:
e2fsprogs (1.42~WIP-2011-07-02-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release
* Add support for 64-bit file systems
* Add support for bigalloc file systems
* Fixed an e2fsck bug which caused "*** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED ***"
without an explanation of what was fixed.
* E2fsck will no longer attempt to clone an extended attribute block
in pass1b handling if the file system does not support extended
attributes.
* E2fsck will be more careful accidentally asking the user to continue
if the file system is mounted, so that an escape sequence won't
cause a false positive. (Closes: #619859)
* E2fsck now uses less cpu time in pass 5
* E2fsck will no longer segault when a corrupted file system has a bad
extent, and removing it leads to a block needing to be deallocated.
* E2fsck now supports an extended "discard" option which will cause
e2fsck to attempt discard all unused blocks after a full check
* The e2image program now supports the qcow2 format, a more efficient
way of capturing file system metadata snapshots.
* Mke2fs now supports the [devices] stanza in mke2fs.conf.
* Mke2fs now supports the reserved_ratio relation in mke2fs.conf.
* Mke2fs now creates extent-mapped directories for the root and
lost+found directories.
* Mke2fs will skip zero'ing the journal if the extended option
"lazy_journal_init" is specified.
* Mke2fs will now create file systems that enable user namespace
extended attributes and with time- and mount count-based file
system checks disabled.
* Mke2fs will not set a stride or strip size of one block based on
block bevice attributes obtained from sysfs.
* Mke2fs now displays a progress report during the discard process.
* Mke2fs now handles extreme file system parameters correctly which
previously caused the inodes per group to drop below 8, leading
to a segfault.
* Debugfs's icheck will now correctly find inodes which use the
searched-for block as an extended attribute block.
* Debugfs now has a new "punch" command which remove blocks from the
middle of an inode.
* The badblocks program now correctly recovers from I/O errors when
direct I/O is being used. The badblocks command now also
supports a -B option which forces the use of buffered I/O, and
the -v option will provide a more detailed breakdown of read,
write, and failed comparison errors.
* Added e4defrag tool which uses the EXT4_IOC_MOVE_EXT ioctl.
* Added support for journals larger than 2GB.
* Support using both hard links and symlinks when installing e2fsprogs.
* Add overflow checking to tune2fs -i's fsck interval, which must fit
in a 32-bit field.
* Filefrag will report 0 extents correctly in verbose mode.
* Logsave's usage message has been fixed. (Closes: #619788)
* Update translations: French, Chinese, Germany, Indonesian, Swedish,
Vietnamese, Polish, Dutch, Czech.
* Updated/clarified man pages.
