This bug was fixed in the package bash - 4.3-7ubuntu1

---------------
bash (4.3-7ubuntu1) trusty-proposed; urgency=medium

  * Merge with Debian, replacing local with upstream patches. LP: #1294669.

bash (4.3-7) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Apply upstream patches 009 - 011 (replacing local patches):
    - Fix a problem with unsigned sign extension when attempting to reallocate
      the input line when it is fewer than 3 characters long and there has been
      a history expansion. The sign extension causes the shell to not
      reallocate the line, which results in a segmentation fault when it writes
      past the end.
    - Change the behavior of programmable completion to compensate for two
      assumptions made by the bash-completion package.
    - The signal handling changes to bash and readline (to avoid running any
      code in a signal handler context) cause the cursor to be placed on the
      wrong line of a multi-line command after a ^C interrupts editing.
