I've been keeping an eye on the patches folder in the original source
folder.
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bash/

look under the 'bash-x.x-patches' folder for your given version of bash for
the patch code.


I wish the patch contained the relevant CVE info.  But, you can match the
'bug reported by' at the top to entries in the ISC presentation -
