Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
* Previous releases of sos used inconsistent input sanitization rules depending on whether user name and case information was supplied interactively or read from system configuration files
* This caused sos to fail to properly sanitize certain invalid strings when read from configuration files and to apply different sanitization to the same strings when input interactively
* All name and number sanitization is now carried out in a single location and all input routines have been modified to use these routines
* Name and number sanitization rules are now applied consistently regardless of the source of the data
Description of problem:
when rhn user name contains character '/' in it, Sosreport is giving following error
/bin/sh: /tmp/sosreport-ABCD/XYZ-20111230154705.tar.xz: No such file or directory
/bin/tar: -: Cannot write: Broken pipe
/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now

fp = open(self.report_file, "r")
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/tmp/sosreport-ABCD/XYZ-20111230154705.tar.xz'
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sos-2.2-17
How reproducible:
Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open /etc/sysconfig/rhn/systemid
2. Edit value of field 'username'. Add '/' character in username. e.g.
<name>username</name>
<value><string>abc/xyz</string></value>
3. Run command
# sosreport
