Shellshock DDoS attacks that target the Bash flaws known as Shellshock have spiked in recent days. CloudFlare CEO Matthew Prince: “We’re seeing north of 1.5 million #shellshock attacks across the @CloudFlare network daily” Trend Micro says it’s also seen Shellshock-related IP address probes directed against unnamed institutions in Brazil, as well as at least one financial services firm in China. The Shellshock problem could be bigger than the Heartbleed vulnerability, says Trend Micro. The Free Software Foundation released Bash patches on Sept. 25 that address the original Bash flaw.”]
