possibly-insecure-handling-of-tmp-files-in-maintainer-script
The maintainer script seems to access a file in /tmp or
some other temporary directory. Since creating temporary files in a
world-writable directory is very dangerous, this is likely to be a
security bug. Use the tempfile or mktemp utilities to
create temporary files in these directories.
