safe

$ safe


env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"



username@antiX1:~
$ env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"
this is a test

There's no end to this s---. The WWW is one of humankind's greatest creations, and it's been ruined in just 25 years. Imagine the next 25 years. Makes me angry, frustrated and disappointed.
