2015 x86_64 AMD A6-3400M APU with Radeon(tm) HD Graphics AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux
Machine Type: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu
Bash Version: 4.3
Patch Level: 42
Release Status: release
Description:
Function reset_alarm() in read.def first resets SIGALRM handler and
then cancels alarm. Sometimes, SIGALRM comes between those 2 calls and
crashes (sub)shell.
Repeat-By:
while sleep 0.00$RANDOM; do echo test; done | while true; do read -t
0.00$RANDOM; echo $REPLY; done
(usually takes a few seconds to crash, sometimes minutes)
Fix:
Swap the lines in reset_alarm().
