hi pekka, 


since the attack, esp. against CGI, is possible through (custom)
headers/cookies etc
you'd need some waf-functionalities (afaik)

naxsi, an nginx-based waf, has a signature for this since wednesday

MainRule "str:() {" "msg:Possible Remote code execution through Bash
CVE-2014-6271" "mz:BODY|HEADERS" "s:$ATTACK:8" id:42000393  ;
