Hi
i want to update the BASH because of the "shell shock" vulnerability.
my RedHat 5 is clean install with the default mirror site.
when im running the command: yum update bash
im getting a message saying there is no update. you can see in the attach picture...
what am i doing wrong? is the default FTP site for update does not contain the new bash? what mirror site address do i need to update?
Thanks
Guy
Perform a `yum clean all' and try again.
You may need to rhn-register the box again... check you subscriptions through your account at Red Hat's website.
You can't (officially) update an RHEL box without a subscription.
I registered the machine and run the yum update bash and it is installed!
thanks a lot!
how do I unregister this machine, because it was only for testing purpose...
Thanks
Guy
