Bug Description
The bug shows up for me in the following procedure:
- Have a VFAT-partition mounted through ClamFS,
- create a folder in this partition,
- create two files via touch,
- copy a test virus to the folder, for example the well-known eicar.com,
- move the folder via shift-drag to the desktop using the Lubuntu file manager.
As expected, ClamFS refuses access to the infected file, but the file manager, though reporting the access error, will still try to move the folder, and lose _all_ files along the way, so I end up with an empty folder on the desktop.
