Thanks Greg that makes more sense.
I would have recognised DoS, dos though :) showing my age I guess.
I'm inclined to doubt though that it can be defined as a Bash DoS
whatever it is, otherwise a lot of installation/bash scripts would be up
for the chop ;).

He meant DoS, or "Denial of Service". He believes he has found some sort
of security bug/exploit.
He responded to me privately (his C code has nothing whatsoever to do with
the issue), and I do not believe that what he found qualifies as a denial
of service exploit. If he wishes to bring the actual issue to the bug-bash
mailing list, then we can discuss it publically, but I'll respect his
desire to maintain privacy at this time.
