CVE-2014-6271: Remote code execution through bash
Here's how to patch Ubuntu 8.04 or anything where you have to build bash from source:<p><pre><code>  #assume that your sources are in /src
  cd /src
  wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-4.3.tar.gz
  #download all patches
  for i in $(seq -f "%03g" 0 25); do wget     http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/bash-4.3-patches/bash43-$i; done
  tar zxvf bash-4.3.tar.gz 
  cd bash-4.3
  #apply all patches
  for i in $(seq -f "%03g" 0 25);do patch -p0 < ../bash43-$i; done
  #build and install
  ./configure && make && make install

</code></pre>
Not sure if Ubuntu 8.04 with custom built bash will be upgradable to 10.04??
