[SECURITY] New versions of bash fixes buffer overflows



We have received reports that the bash shell had a problem with
very long pathnames. When a very long path was encountered bash
failed to check the result of getcwd() in all places, which could
be exploited. 

We recommend you upgrade your bash package immediately.

wget url
    will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.
