Description Renaud Métrich 2019-07-15 14:23:39 UTC 
Description of problem:

A customer reported a regression in zsh-5.0.2-31.el7.x86_64 compared to zsh-5.0.2-28.el7.x86_64 around "chaselinks" option:

$ unsetopt chaselinks; cd /
$ setopt chaselinks; cd /
zsh: path expansion failed, using root directory


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

zsh-5.0.2-31.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:

Always, see above with zsh-5.0.2-31.el7.x86_64


Additional info:

Patch 34 (zsh-5.0.2-CVE-2014-10072.patch) introduces the regression.
I was able to fix it by backporting some additional code.
