BASH PATCH REPORT ================= Bash-Release: 3.2 Patch-ID: bash32-051 Bug-Reported-by: werner@suse.de Bug-Reference-ID: <201002251238.o1PCcYcg016893@boole.suse.de> Bug-Reference-URL: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2010-02/msg00132.html Bug-Description: When the `read' builtin times out after the timeout specified with -t is exceeded, it does not reset the flags that tell signal handlers to process signals immediately instead of deferring their handling. This can result in unsafe functions being called from signal handlers, which can cause bash to hang or dump core.
