>Description:
Pine has security issues.
Messages to bugtraq confirmed that
"An attacker can send a fully legal email message with a crafted
From-header and thus forcing pine to core dump on startup."

CAN-2002-1320

Maybe it can be exploited.
>How-To-Repeat:
	
>Fix:
The 4.50 version apparently fixes the problem.

Either add patch to existing pine-4.44 and add PKGREVISION;
and add to vulnerabilities:
pine<=4.44	denial-of-service	http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1320

Or update to 4.50.
pine<=4.50	denial-of-service	http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CAN-2002-1320

Since the pine webpage says their are multiple bugs fixed,
it is probably a good idea to just go to 4.50 (and hope
nothing else is broken).
