ForticlientSSLVPN insecure lock file creation issu

Code
`forticlientsslvpn suffers from an insecure lock file creation issue.  
Upon starting the forticlientsslvpn, the file 'forticlientsslvpn.lock'  
is created under the /tmp directory with octal permissions  
0666.   
  
The client does not first check if this file exists, or if it is even  
currently owned by the user running the client.  
  
P.O.C  
Create a symlink from /tmp/forticlientsslvpn.lock  
to /some/file/owned_by_root as a non-root user. Then run the  
forticlientsslvpn client as root and the file you pointed at will then  
be overwritten upon execution.
