CVE-2002-2244: Akfingerd

Low severity, CVSS 2.1. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

Akfingerd 0.5 and earlier versions allow local users to cause a denial of service (crash) via a .plan with a symlink to /dev/urandom or other device, then disconnecting while data is being transferred, which causes a SIGPIPE error that Akfingerd cannot handle.
