JSON

Stack-based buffer overflow in lib/sh/eaccess.c in GNU Bash before 4.2
patch 33 might allow local users to bypass intended restricted shell access
via a long filename in /dev/fd, which is not properly handled when
expanding the /dev/fd prefix.

Notes

Author	Note
jdstrand	reproducer in oss thread verified that compiler hardening blocks this on all releases (-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 on 10.04 LTS+ and -fstack-protector on 8.04 LTS)
mdeslaur	since this gets blocked, it is not a security issue. Ignoring.
