    Hello

while i was playing with the finger command, i got a coredump when
i submit

finger aaaa ( 200 random caracters )

i wonder if this is a possible security hole because the finger
command is owned by bin group.

my HP-UX is A.09.05 A 9000/730

got that from uname

sorry if this is an old bug i didn t had the time to check the archive
and forgive me for my broken english :)

p.
