[Bug]: cmd.run doesn't handle wildcards anymore? after upgrade 3006.14 -> 3006.15 #68300
Description
What happened?
At first i thought it was a permission problem, but it's actually just the wildcard that causes a problem. I did not see anything in the 3006.15-changelog that could have caused this. Maybe someone here can explain what's happening.
execute on the master (3006.15) with a minion (3006.15):
root@master:~# salt 'host' cmd.run 'ls -l /boot/'
host:

host:
ls: cannot access '/boot/vmlinuz*': No such file or directoryexecute on the master (3006.15) with a minion (3006.14), the first two commands with the same result, but also the last one ist successful:
root@master:~# salt 'host2' cmd.run 'ls -l /boot/vmlinuz*'

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 8206272 Aug 2 15:13 /boot/vmlinuz-6.1.0-38-amd64I was hoping the behaviour would be the same on the newest version - bug or feature ;-)?
