Subject: ntfs-3g: Copying to NTFS doesn't sanitize filenames Package: ntfs-3g Version: 1:2012.1.15AR.5-2.1 Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer, When copying stuff to an NTFS drive, filenames aren't sanitized for invalid characters. When trying to manipulate (rename, delete) the files in question in Windows Vista, Windows pops up an error box which says they are invalid. Note: this might also affect fat32 and company. I mounted the NTFS volume under Linux as root with a terminal, and copied with Xfce's Thunar. Aside note: chkdsk didn't catch this, so maybe it's not too serious? -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.2.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages ntfs-3g depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.49 ii fuse 2.9.0-2+deb7u1 ii libc6 2.13-38+deb7u1 ii libfuse2 2.9.0-2+deb7u1 ii libgcrypt11 1.5.0-5+deb7u1 ii libgnutls26 2.12.20-8 ii multiarch-support 2.13-38+deb7u1 ntfs-3g recommends no packages. ntfs-3g suggests no packages. -- debconf information: ntfs-3g/setuid-root: false ntfs-3g/initramfs: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
