Package: bash
Version: 3.0-16
Severity: normal
The following brace expansion:
echo
{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}{0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}
Fails with the following error:
bash: xmalloc: ../bash/make_cmd.c:167: cannot allocate 8 bytes (0 bytes
allocated)
And then the shell dies (crash).
I'm quite sure that on older versions of the shell this worked OK.
I used pdksh to execute the same command and see if it was running
out of memory, but it worked fine.
