PROBLEM: (QAR 45801,QAR 61048,EVT102530) (Patch ID: OSF435-405301) ******** This patch fixes a problem that was caused by the Korn shell running in EMACS mode. When a window was resized with a width that exceeded 160 characters, the next command (or even a return) would cause the ksh utility to core dump. PROBLEM: (UVO105992) (Patch ID: OSF435-425344) ******** This patch corrects a problem which results in a superuser being able to inadvertently bring the system down to single user mode by accidentally killing pid 1 (init) when trying to kill a background job (%1). PROBLEM: (QAR 63603) (Patch ID: OSF435-425422) ******** This patch fixes a problem in the csh shell that caused a change in the way wildcard patterns were matched. The problem resulted in the error: Glob aborted - Permission denied. PROBLEM: (CLD MGO103483) (Patch ID: OSF435-405343) ******** This patch fixes a problem when builtin variables (ex. TMOUT) are exported as readonly with values > 256. The 'set' command (display all variables) will cause ksh to core dump with the error "stack overflow". PROBLEM: (CLDs HPAQ50F5M HPAQ21LTJ QAR 53389) (Patch ID: OSF435-405389) ******** File globbing in ksh sometimes does not list all the files in the directory. PROBLEM: (CLDs DMO100352 QAR 57030) (Patch ID: OSF435-405389) ******** This patch fixes a memory management problem that occurs on systems running the Korn shell. Incorrect results occur when the length of the parameter to the echo command is altered. PROBLEM: (EVT102702, QAR 61875/64784) (Patch ID: OSF435-405479) ******** This patch fixes a problem with /usr/bin/ksh and the named-pipe (FIFO) communication that is used by applications. This problem is seen randomly when 2 shells scripts (a parent process and a child process) are waiting for each others read/write on their named-pipe. It was observed that the read didn't complete by the child process although data was present in its named-piped writen by the parent process. PROBLEM: (CLD BCGM71LG7) (Patch ID: OSF435-405528) ******** This patch corrects a problem that was causing ksh to core dump in vi editing mode. ksh was core dumping intermittently when using '.' to repeat a command. PROBLEM: (QAR 65164) (Patch ID: OSF435-405538) ******** This problem fixes unexpected logouts and terminal hangups encountered when using the /bin/su command and /bin/ksh as a login shell. PROBLEM: (CLD MGO103997) (Patch ID: OSF435-410240) ******** This patch fixes a problem with ksh. ksh will core dump with segmentation fault when displaying a here-document. PROBLEM: (QAR 69522 65377) (Patch ID: OSF435-171) ******** This patch fixes a core dump that occurs in the ksh echo command when ksh is echoing a number whose decimal value is greater than 255. PROBLEM: (QAR 70941, CLD TKTR42338) (Patch ID: OSF435-177) ******** In the C shell (csh), commands do not correctly print Japanese SJIS strings assigned to shell variables. For example, when running under the ja_JP.SJIS locale, the following echo statement does not correctly print the content of the var variable: % echo "$var" This patch installs a revised C shell that correctly prints the Japanese text. PROBLEM: (CLD MGO104039) (Patch ID: OSF435-194) ******** This patch corrects a problem that may cause ksh to coredump when displaying a large here-document in a ksh script. PROBLEM: (QAR 65964 QAR 70023) (Patch ID: OSF435-225) ******** This patch fixes a problem with the Korn shell where data loss occurs when commnds are piped together. This is seen when ksh is your default login shell and the first command to be issued pipes output to a shell script. PROBLEM: (CLD TKTQ50260, QAR 71678) (Patch ID: OSF435-247) ******** The second byte of some 2-byte SJIS characters can contain a value that, as a single-byte character, has special meaning to the C shell. In the problem report being addressed by this patch, the user assigned a two-byte SJIS character to a shell variable through command substitution. The second byte of the SJIS character value was 0x60, which by itself represents the backquote (`) character. Because the C shell processed the 0x60 value as a backquote rather than as the second byte of a 2-byte character, the user received an "Unmatched `" error. This patch installs a revised C shell that correctly handles 2-byte Japanese characters. PROBLEM: (HPAQ322BS, QAR 71534 73821) (Patch ID: OSF435-311) ******** This patch fixes a problem in ksh which required two SIGTERM signals to be sent to the process when it exec'ed. PROBLEM: (CLD TKT011546) (Patch ID: OSF435-358) ******** This patch fixes a problem in the C shell (csh) in which a segmentation fault will occur when the user defines an environmental variable which exceeds the 2048 character limitation. This limit has been lengthened to 8192 characters.
