builtin: Reject malformed printf specifications with digits after '*'
Dash doesn't notice when a format string has digits following a * width specifier. $ dash -c 'printf "%*0s " 1 2 && echo FAIL || echo OK' %10s FAIL $ bash -c 'printf "%*0s " 1 2 && echo FAIL || echo OK' bash: line 0: printf: `0': invalid format character OK $ mksh -c 'printf "%*0s " 1 2 && echo FAIL || echo OK' printf: %*0: invalid conversion specification OK With this patch dash complains about the malformed specifications. $ ./src/dash -c 'printf "%*0s " 1 2 && echo FAIL || echo OK' ./src/dash: 1: printf: %*0: invalid directive OK Fixes: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=779618 Originally-by:Patrick Brown <opensource@whoopdedo.org> Forwarded-by:
