VyOS & Vyatta core don't expose any web services that could use bash by
default, so exposure should be zero, unless you do something silly like
allowing ssh access to the world by default (in which case ssh bots are
already a risk), or adding shell scripts into snmpd.conf and exposing
that to the world.
