Subject: SDelete v2.01 - dangerous bug
Posted: 20 February 2018 at 12:18pm
Hi,
I found a dangerous bug in sdelete v2.01 (same problem with v2.0 or v1.51)
I have a directory with 3 files:
testfile1.xls
testfile2.xlsx
testfile3.xlsabcdef
The command sdelete *.xls should wipe just testfile1.xls but surprisingly wipe all the 3 files, therefore sdelete *.xls acts as sdelete *.xls* and this is very dangerous !!
Thank you in advance,
best regards
