3. Description:

The GNU Bourne Again shell (Bash) is a shell and command language
interpreter compatible with the Bourne shell (sh). Bash is the default
shell for Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-6271 was incomplete, and Bash
still allowed certain characters to be injected into other environments
via specially crafted environment variables. An attacker could
potentially use this flaw to override or bypass environment restrictions
to execute shell commands. Certain services and applications allow
remote unauthenticated attackers to provide environment variables,
allowing them to exploit this
issue. (CVE-2014-7169)

Applications which directly create Bash functions as environment
variables need to be made aware of the changes to the way names are
handled by this update. For more information see the Knowledgebase
article at https://access.redhat.com/articles/1200223

Note: Docker users are advised to use "yum update" within their
containers, and to commit the resulting changes.

For additional information on CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169, refer to
the aforementioned Knowledgebase article.

All bash users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
contain a backported patch to correct this issue.

4. Solution:

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata
relevant to your system have been applied.

This update is available via the Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
the Red Hat Network to apply this update are available at
