Updated ksh packages that fix several bugs are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.
KornShell (KSH) is a Unix shell developed by AT&T Bell Laboratories, which is backward-compatible with the Bourne shell (Bash) and includes many features of the C shell. The most recent version is KSH-93. KornShell complies with the POSIX.2 standard (IEEE Std 1003.2-1992).

Bug Fixes

BZ#892206
Due to a bug in the ksh package, command substitutions containing the pipe ("|") character returned incorrect return codes. This bug has been fixed, and the pipe character can now be used inside command substitutions without complications.
BZ#910923
Previously, the ksh SIGTSTP signal handler could trigger another SIGTSTP signal. Consequently, ksh would enter an infinite loop. This updated version fixes the SIGTSTP signal processing and ksh now handles this signal without problems.
BZ#912443
In certain cases, ksh did not execute command substitution inside of "here" documents. Consequently, some content of a here document could be missing. With this update, the command substitution for here documents has been fixed. As a result, here documents include data from command substitutions as expected.
BZ#921138
Previously, when using arrays inside of ksh functions, memory leaks occurred. This bug has been fixed, and memory leaks no longer occur in the described scenario.
BZ#958195
Previously, ksh did not resize the file descriptor list every time it was necessary. Consequently, a memory corruption could occur when a large amount of file descriptors were used. With this update, ksh has been modified to resize the file descriptor list every time it is needed. As a result, memory corruption no longer occurs in the described scenario.
BZ#972732
Previously, ksh did not prevent modifications of variables of the read-only type. As a consequence, ksh terminated unexpectedly with a segmentation fault when such a variable had been modified. With this update, modification of read-only variables are not allowed, and ksh prints an error message in this scenario.
Users of ksh are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs.
