Hi, Something I came across a couple of times this week, just now in relation to an RFE regarding file permissions on copying fat files in RHs bugzilla (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=195614): http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/mc/src/file.c?root=mc&r1=1.28&r2=1.29
A commit by "pavel" (Machek?) who added the remark "FIXME: You have security hole here, btw. Imagine copying to /tmp and symlink attack :-(" Is there anybody that can explain to me what he's concerned about and if that is still an issue? If so this is a rather long standing hole... If not, let's get rid of that warning.
