Shellshock Bash Vulnerability - How to check

How to Check System Vulnerability on Bash

On each of your systems that run Bash, you may check for Shellshock vulnerability by running the following command at the bash prompt:

env VAR='() { :;}; echo Bash is vulnerable!' bash -c "echo Bash Test"

The highlighted echo Bash is vulnerable! portion of the command represents where a remote attacker could inject malicious code; arbitrary code following a function definition within an environment variable assignment. Therefore, if you see the following output, your version of Bash is 

vulnerable and should be updated:

Bash is vulnerable!
Bash Test

Otherwise, if your output does not include the simulated attacker's payload, i.e. "Bash is vulnerable" is not printed as output, your version of bash is not vulnerable. It may look something like this:

bash: warning: VAR: ignoring function definition attempt
bash: error importing function definition for `VAR'
Bash Test
