        Well, that's going to cause a few headaches.

          That pretty much sucks. I suspect that we will have patches already available for nearly any enterprise OS. That should be a quick and easy one to patch.

            @scottalanmiller patches available != patches applied

            That is always the problem with this.

              I like the fine print at the top: "Mac OS X Mavericks is also a *nix, and also vulnerable to the Bash bug."

                  I wonder if the discovery of this has anything to do with the bank robbers (the mainstream media called them hackers) that were finally caught after 12 years of stealth operation.
