Subject: Fwd: Non-upstream patches for bash
Hi All,
Based on the current situation and the fact that there is confusion
about what patch to use for the bash issue. I wanted to post this here.
We have found a few more issues (OOB memory access). Also I am posting
Florain's patch here which should fix the issue in a more deeper way
rather than just apply duct-tape.
Any feed back etc is welcome!

Note that if you ship 4.3, you might want to reevaluate a decision to
enable array variable import from the environment.
Internal analysis revealed two out-of-bounds array accesses in the bash
parser. This was also independently and privately reported by Todd
Sabin <tsabin@...online.net>.
The redir_stack issue is this:
$ bash -c 'true <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF
<<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF <<EOF'
bash: line 2: warning: here-document at line 2 delimited by end-of-file
(wanted `EOF')
bash: line 2: warning: here-document at line 2 delimited by end-of-file
(wanted `EOF')
bash: line 2: warning: here-document at line 2 delimited by end-of-file
(wanted `EOF')

(wanted `EOF')
bash: line 2: make_here_document: bad instruction type 33
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
The word_lineno issue is this (only visible with address sanitizer, but
it's probably to come up with something better):
$ (for x in {1..200} ; do echo "for x$x in ; do :"; done; for x in
{1..200} ; do echo done ; done) > test-script.sh $ bash test-script.sh
Both issues are fixed by the parser-oob patches.
I'm also including the function definition affix patch which has already
been posted to oss-security. (variables-affix-3.0.patch has only seen
very light review and testing yet, but it's a fairly straightforward
backport.)
You'll also want Chet's one-liner patch posted to oss-security.
