temporary files with predictable filenames. This is exploitable if a
local attacker were to create symbolic links in the temporary files
directory, pointing to a valid file on the filesystem. When texindex
is executed, the file would be overwitten with the rights of the user
running texindex.

The updated packages have been patched to correct this issue."
