Incomplete patch (Score: 1)

by seriously@pipedot.org on 2014-09-25 10:24 (#2SWZ)

Note that the patch issued yesterday fixes only part of the issue and some vulnerabilities remain, so patch now but be ready to patch again soon ;-)

Also, according to the bug report, the remaining problems also impact zsh. (edit: this has been refuted since then)
