Re: [SLUG] BASH update for Debian 6?

2014-09-26 Thread Chris Barnes
thanks for the tip Mark,

I had considered trying to install the BASH update for Wheezy on my Squeeze
machines but the thought of getting the dependencies met seemed daunting.

I tried your commands but as suspected, ran into dependency issues -
Multiarch-support needs libc6 = 2.13-5, updating libc6 requires a newer
locales, and on it goes.

The default shell on my systems is /bin/dash and /etc/passwd shows all
accounts except mine and root have /bin/sh (dash) as their shell. So it
might just be easier to change the shell for my account and roots account,
and then uninstall BASH.

I thought about doing this too, but what if scripts have

Probably they shouldn't, but that doesn't mean they don't.

  locales, and on it goes.
 
  The default shell on my systems is /bin/dash and /etc/passwd shows all
  accounts except mine and root have /bin/sh (dash) as their shell. So
 it
  might just be easier to change the shell for my account and roots
  account,
  and then uninstall BASH.
 
 
  I thought about doing this too, but what if scripts have
 
  #!/bin/bash
 
  Probably they shouldn't, but that doesn't mean they don't.

[SLUG] BASH update for Debian 6?

2014-09-25 Thread Chris Barnes
Hey people,

I haven't seen an update for BASH come down in the Debian Squeeze security
updates. As a result my machines are still vulnerable.

My Debian 7 machines received the update promptly just not my 6 machines.

Has anyone else received an update for BASH on Deb 6?

Im using the security.Debian.org apt source for security updates.

If anyone is curios to hear more, discuss or anything else, I'd be very
