[SECURITY] New versions of cfingerd fixes root compromise



We have received a report that a user can execute arbitrary commands
from a .plan or .project file.  While the option that would allow this
is disabled by default the system is vulnerable if the system admin
had this option enabled.

We recommend you upgrade your cfingerd package immediately.

dpkg -i file.deb
        will install the referenced file.
