[kwlug-disc] Vulnerability in bash

[Khalid Baheyeldin]

And now, there are shellshock attacks targeting mail servers. This is
serious as it does not require a web server with CGI.

Debian shell defaults to /bin/dash, not /bin/bash, so if you left it
as the default, you are probably safe. If you run another distro, then
you should a) check if bash is the default, and b) make sure you
upgrade.
