Comment (by johndouthat@…):

 After installing 4.3.25 from MacPorts, bash still seems to be vulnerable

 {{{
 ~ $ echo $BASH_VERSION
 4.3.25(1)-release
 ~ $ env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"
 vulnerable
 this is a test
 }}}

 I expected to see something like this: (from a patched Ubuntu 12.04
 machine)

 {{{
 ~$  echo $BASH_VERSION
 4.2.25(1)-release
 ~$ env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is a test"
 bash: warning: x: ignoring function definition attempt
 bash: error importing function definition for `x'
 this is a test
 }}}
