Hi,

What URL do I point to see the security bugs listed by CVE for CVE for bash43-25 through -28?

I didn't see it in the patches themselves - ftp://ftp.cwru.edu/pub/bash/bash-4.3-patches 

Sorry, I am new to bash culture,

Nope, this one fixes 7168/7169.  It's the equivalent of the `parser-oob' patch.

My mistake, it's 7186/7187.  There are fixes for both in one patch.  The fix for the off-by-one error is not obvious, 
but it's in there in the third chunk.
