Back from vacation - and I see there have been some patches to bash bring the version number to bash-4.3.42 (for 42 official patch releases). See http://www.aixtools.net/index.php/bash for links to the new version.
Brief descriptions of the three new patches are:
Bash-Release: 4.3
Patch-ID: bash43-040
Bug-Reported-by: Jean Delvare
Bug-Reference-URL: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2015-06/msg00033.html
Bug-Description:
There is a memory leak that occurs when bash expands an array reference on
the rhs of an assignment statement.
Patch-ID: bash43-041
Bug-Reported-by: Hanno Böck Bug-Reference-URL: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2015-06/msg00089.html,
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2015-07/msg00018.html
Bug-Description:
There are several out-of-bounds read errors that occur when completing command
lines where assignment statements appear before the command name. The first
two appear only when programmable completion is enabled; the last one only
happens when listing possible completions.

There is a problem when parsing command substitutions containing `case'
commands within pipelines that causes the parser to not correctly identify
the end of the command substitution.
