- Source-reported fixed versions
- No fixed-version detail extracted. This does not mean no fix exists.
- Mitigation guidance
- Rebuild dash with --enable-fnmatch so pathname matching uses libc fnmatch. Until then, do not run dash globs, case, or ${var#pat} / ${var%pat} against attacker-controlled names with multi-star patterns. There is no upstream backtracking bound in the internal matcher.
