Remediation
Red Hat statement
Red Hat Product Security has rated this issue as having a Low security impact, because the "victim" has to run an untrusted file IN SCRIPT MODE. Someone who is running untrusted files in script mode is equivalent to someone just taking a random python script and running it. For additional information, refer to the Issue Severity Classification: https://access.redhat.com/security/updates/classification/ Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and 7 are out of support scope for this flaw. To learn more about RHEL support scopes, please see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ .

Scripts with -s {scriptin} are not recommended to run.
