Thanks for posting this, as it was the first I'd heard about it. I
didn't visit the Tom's site but searched "shellshock bash ubuntu" to
find out some information and what to do.
What I did:
1) reboot my servers (Ubuntu already installed the security update
automatically)
2) while that was happening, read up on background information.
In retrospect I don't think I was impacted because I don't use CGI in
any of my web sites or applications. However, I'm considering scheduling
a reboot of my servers once a day in case I miss something of this
magnitude again. I used to pride myself by how long I could keep a
server running but times have changed.
