The bash patch seems incomplete to me, function parsing is still
brittle. e.g. $ env X='() { (a)=>\' sh -c "echo date"; cat echo

Thanks for bringing this to oss-security.  I've added CC to Chet and
Tavis on this "reply".

I have a fix for this.

Can you provide a pointer to the patch?  I put together a patch that
changed the report_error() to fatal_error() as I wasn't able to see
how to reset the parser state.  Was just about to send it out...

I have positive confirmation that this patch works, so here are patches for
bash versions bash-2.05b to bash-4.3.

I will probably push these out tomorrow.
