BASH PATCH REPORT
			     =================

Bash-Release:	4.2
Patch-ID:	bash42-044

Bug-Reported-by:	"Dashing" <dashing@hushmail.com>
Bug-Reference-ID:	<20130211175049.D90786F446@smtp.hushmail.com>
Bug-Reference-URL:	http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2013-02/msg00030.html

Bug-Description:

When converting a multibyte string to a wide character string as part of
pattern matching, bash does not handle the end of the string correctly,
causing the search for the NUL to go beyond the end of the string and
reference random memory.  Depending on the contents of that memory, bash
can produce errors or crash.
