- CVEs with nessus.description==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 changes to the way names are
handled by this update.
Note: Docker users are advised to use 'yum update' within their
containers, and to commit the resulting changes.
