Package: x2goclient Version: 4.0.3.0-2014.10.10-b0c3672
Since before I started maintaining the Windows Builds of X2Go Client, we've been shipping Cygwin Bash.
Due to the recent Bash vulns and the required Cygwin Bash security updates, I am thinking of switching us over to Cygwin Dash.[1] I would simply rename ash.exe to sh.exe as part of the Windows build process.[2]
A shell is required by Cygwin OpenSSH, which we also ship. woglinde and I were discussing this on IRC.
<woglinde> mikedep333 dash should be okay <woglinde> we only need a shell <woglinde> there are no special shell scripts in the client <woglinde> and unfornatly the ssh_force commnds needs the shell to open the command <woglinde> hm otherwise you always need a shell via ssh
