  • Bash Vulnerablilty RHEL 5.3 bash-3.2-24.el5

    Posted on

    We have one machine running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga).
    The current version on bash is:
    [root@lcp102 ~]# rpm -q bash
    bash-3.2-24.el5

    I tried to update bash and got the following:
    [root@lcp102 ~]# yum update bash
    Loaded plugins: rhnplugin
    Setting up Update Process
    No Packages marked for Update

    Should this "yum update bash" work on our 5.3 Red Hat? It worked on 5.8, 5.9, and 6.5.

    I am a dba (not an sa) for small company, so help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,
    Steve
