Follow-up Comment #4, bug #14386 (project findutils):
Shell scripts can use temporary files safely with @command{mktemp}, but
it does not exist on all systems. A portable way to create a safe
temporary file name is to create a temporary directory with mode 700 and
use a file inside this directory. Both methods prevent attackers from
gaining control, though @command{mktemp} is far less likely to fail
gratuitously under attack.
