[O] bug#17416: insecure temp files in ob-screen.el


From: Glenn Morris
Subject: [O] bug#17416: insecure temp files in ob-screen.el
Date: Tue, 06 May 2014 00:14:36 -0400

Package: emacs,org-mode
Version: 24.3.90
Severity: important
Tags: security

org-babel-screen-session-write-temp-file and org-babel-screen-test seem
to use predictable temp-file names, which is a security issue. Using
`make-temp-file', or if the file names really need to be predictable,
something equivalent to `doc-view-make-safe-dir' (there should really be
a general utility function for this IMO) to first create a /tmp
subdirectory would avoid this.
