shell scripts stall when run in QTS 5.2.10

I’m seeing bash scripts (like sherpa) immediately go into an indefinite wait state after execution since upgrading from QTS 5.2.9 to 5.2.10.

I have to kill and restart, often repeatedly, until my script runs. But, this behaviour varies slightly between x86-64 and arm64. On arm64, the script runs for a short time, then stalls.

Anyone else getting this with their scripts?

Update: if I install bash 5.3.9 from Entware, no problems. Fault seems to be with the builtin version only.

QNAP staff: have there been any config or build changes to bash in QTS 5.2.10 that would cause this?

They’re out to get you and stop you from meddling in their system LOL

Speaking of grammar that bugs me

Me too. I blame autocorrect (my hand is all bandaged up, so typing is a challenge). Edited and fixed. Thanks. At least the second one was correct.

Quick follow-up:

My bad - looks like this isn’t a bash issue, it’s a GitHub issue. Still testing…

Resolved. Some new snort rules were causing GitHub packets to be blocked in pfSense.

Thanks for sharing and for the clarification! If you run into any issues with the bash script, feel free to bring it up and we can take a look.
