From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040612 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Two problems: 1. The "Name" and "Number" fields in the Personal Settings dialog allow the user to type any character, even though the set of characters supported by the Fax standards is limited. For example, the "Number" field should allow only numbers, spaces and + signs. 2. When passing the contents of "Name" and "Number" to efax, certain characters like spaces and + signs are misinterpreted by the /usr/bin/fax shell script, even though they are surrounded by single quoes on the command line. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.2.2-4 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set the "Number" field to something like "+1 234 567 8901", which is a legal fax number string 2. Set the Fax number, and add a file 3. Press the Send Fax button 4. Click Fax : View log, and notice the error messages from /usr/bin/fax complaining about 234 being a bad command.
Fedora Core 2 is now maintained by the Fedora Legacy project for security updates only. If this problem is a security issue, please reopen and reassign to the Fedora Legacy product. If it is not a security issue and hasn't been resolved in the current FC3 updates or in the FC4 test release, reopen and change the version to match.
Closed per above message and lack of response. Note that FC2 is not even supported by Fedora Legacy currently.
