Package: bash
Version: 4.3-7
Severity: important

Since upgrading to the 4.3 series, bash crashes quite frequently, always
right after I hit "enter" on a command and before running the command.
Usually such crashes just result in a closed terminal tab, making it
difficult to investigate them, but today I got a crash on a remote
system that just ended the SSH session, so I have the output from the
crashing shell:

malloc: unknown:0: assertion botched
free: called with unallocated block argument

"unknown:0" doesn't seem particularly useful, sadly.  But this does
suggest an incorrect free (either a double-free or a free of non-malloc
memory) somewhere on the command execution path.

I've seen crashes with commands as simple as "ls", so the crash doesn't
require pipes, redirection, history expansion, variable expansion,
builtins, or similar.

Closes: 707810 747341
Changes:
 bash (4.3-8) unstable; urgency=medium
 .
   * Apply upstream patches 012 - 022, fixing the issues:
     - When a SIGCHLD trap runs a command containing a shell builtin while a
       script is running `wait' to wait for all running children to complete,
       the SIGCHLD trap will not be run once for each child that terminates.
     - Using reverse-i-search when horizontal scrolling is enabled does not
       redisplay the entire line containing the successful search results.
     - Under certain circumstances, $@ is expanded incorrectly in contexts
       where word splitting is not performed.
     - When completing directory names, the directory name is dequoted twice.
       This causes problems for directories with single and double quotes in
       their names.
     - An extended glob pattern containing a slash (`/') causes the globbing
       code to misinterpret it as a directory separator.
     - The code that creates local variables should not clear the `invisible'
       attribute when returning an existing local variable.  Let the code that
       actually assigns a value clear it.
     - When assigning an array variable using the compound assignment syntax,
       but using `declare' with the rhs of the compound assignment quoted, the
       shell did not mark the variable as visible after successfully performing
       the assignment.
     - The -t timeout option to `read' does not work when the -e option is used.
       LP: #1317476.
     - When PS2 contains a command substitution, here-documents entered in an
       interactive shell can sometimes cause a segmentation fault.
     - When the readline `revert-all-at-newline' option is set, pressing newline
       when the current line is one retrieved from history results in a double
       free and a segmentation fault. Closes: #747341.
     - Using nested pipelines within loops with the `lastpipe' option set can
       result in a segmentation fault.
   * Fix typo in package description. Closes: #707810.
