| 185.Sh SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS 186The 187.Fn tmpnam 188and 189.Fn tempnam 190functions are susceptible to a race condition, 191which allows malicious users 192to potentially overwrite arbitrary files in the system, 193depending on the level of privilege of the running program. 194It is strongly suggested that 195.Xr mkstemp 3 196be used in place of these functions. 197(See 198the FSA.) |
