Apple Addresses Bash Bug With New Patch

No more command line input or complicated workarounds: Apple has released a downloadable patch for fixing the bash “Shellshock” bug.


The patch is available not only for OS X Mavericks v10.9.5., but also older versions of Apple software: OS X Lion v10.7.5, OS X Lion Server v10.7.5, and OS X Mountain Lion v10.8.5. There is currently no fix for machines running test versions of Yosemite.


Last week, an Apple spokesperson said that “The vast majority of OS X users are not at risk to recently reported bash vulnerabilities.” However, the company acknowledged it was working on the bash patch released Monday.
