On desktop, Ubuntu UI Toolkit’s StateSaver would serialise data on tmp/
files which an attacker could use to expose potentially sensitive data.
StateSaver would also open files without the O_EXCL flag. An attacker could
exploit this to launch a symlink attack, though this is partially mitigated
by symlink and hardlink restrictions in Ubuntu. Fixed in
1.1.1188+14.10.20140813.4-0ubuntu1.
