xcfa before 5.0.1 creates temporary files insecurely which could allow
local users to launch a symlink attack and overwrite arbitrary files.

| Author | Note |
|---|---|
| seth-arnold | Extensive unsafe use of /tmp leads me to believe the problems extend beyond just symlink or just hardlink issues, thus I’m not tagging this with the symlink-restriction or hardlink-restriction tags and I’m setting the Priority to “medium” rather than “low” as a result. |
