Array Networks announces that Array Networks products - including APV, vAPV, AG, vxAG and EOS products (TMX, SPX) - are NOT exposed to the bash vulnerability.

As a result, no actions or mitigation are required on the part of Array networks customers or users.
As described on the Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures Website, GNU Bash through 4.3 processes trailing strings after function definitions in the values of environment variables, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted environment, as demonstrated by vectors involving the ForceCommand feature in OpenSSH sshd, the mod_cgi and mod_cgid modules in the Apache HTTP Server, scripts executed by unspecified DHCP clients, and other situations in which setting the environm…
