I have two servers with expired contracts that are both vulnerable to shellshock. I am in the process of migrating both to new servers with RHEL6 or greater depending when I get this done. That being said, running yum fails due to no contract which for such a high level bug, is really shameful of Red Hat.

Nevertheless, how do I get the rpm so I can manually upgrade on both servers?

They are: Linux intranet 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5PAE #1 SMP Sat May 7 20:37:06 EDT 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Thank you very much!

    You may be able to do a conversion to CentOS, or grab the single CentOS package for bash. – mgjk Oct 01 '14 at 19:43

You need to download bash-3.2-33.el5_11.4.i386 (or find it at any other alternative location) follow by:

yum remove bash
yum localinstall bash

  • I just did a `rpm -U bash-3.2-33.el5_11.4.i386.rpm` since `yum` itself tried to go onto rhnplugin and that fails. – Jonathan Oct 02 '14 at 15:11
