Patch Level: 8
Release Status: release
Description:
Upon ssh to bash 5.1.8 from a mobile device running iOS 15.1, error and
status messages are echoed by bash to the screen in the Greek alphabet and
language.
Repeat-By:
From an iPad or iPhone running iOS 15, use any ssh client app to
connect to and obtain a login shell on a Mac running OS 13.6. Enter, e.g., the
following sequence:
/bin/sleep 300 &
jobs
In the output the sleep command will appear in English, but the "running"
status will be given in Greek.
Then attempt to disconnect with the mistyped command
exir
The message explaining that the command is unknown will likewise be echoed in
Greek.
Fix:
[Description of how to fix the problem. If you don't know a
fix for the problem, don't include this section.]
I'd look at the source code that tells bash how to look up and find, on an
SSH_CLIENT running iOS, the locale key needed to select output messages for
echoing to the screen.
