usage of BASH from PATH

[h0nIg]

Description

Sometimes bash is not hardcoded into /bin/bash and bash from PATH needs to get used. We need this to run the piper action in our SAP NixOS docker image.

side remark: we have a /bin/sh but we are unsure if the detect script required bash or standard sh

What about the scans which are running on /bin/bash, will this change not break all such scans which aer dependent on /bin/bash ?

@jitendk I dont fully understand your question, maybe you can reach out to me via teams.

In general the command will get executed as of today: /bin/bash detect.sh, therefore it ignores the shebang inside detect.sh anyhow. I would like to have it bash detect.sh, which still executes it with bash. It just takes the bash from the PATH variable instead of relying on hardcoded assumptions where bash binary is located
