In the light of the recent Bash vulnerability known as "Shellshock" (CVE-2014-6271 and CVE-2014-7169), we have reviewed its products to understand if any are at risk.

As far as we are aware, none of our products can be exploited by means of this bug.

As a matter of good security practice, we will be updating the various Sophos-supplied versions of Bash as soon as a stable and effective patch is available from the Bash maintainers.
