Everything you need to know about the Shellshock B...
Out of curiosty: did it cause any problems with intended use of this shell feature? Did anyone complained that it broke something that worked before?

I assume Cloudflare are filtering HTTP headers. I cannot imagine a valid reason to pass in functions to bash in headers.

There is no intended use, it's a pure evil bug in bash. I wouldn't be surprised if it was discovered that it has been implanted intentionnally.

How can a bug be evil? Don't attach morals to things which should be amoral.
