There is no evidence in this bug of unsafe temp file creation in /tmp.

Title:
  Open3.pm tries to run code in /tmp when updating ubuntu-drivers-common

Status in perl package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  During update of ubuntu-drivers-common:

    Can't exec "/tmp/ubuntu-drivers-common.config.55GJ8b": Permission denied at 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/IPC/Open3.pm line 178, <GEN0> line 1.
  open2: exec of /tmp/ubuntu-drivers-common.config.55GJ8b configure 
1:0.9.6.2~0.22.04.4 failed: Permission 
    denied at /usr/share/perl5/Debconf/ConfModule.pm line 59.
    Preconfiguring packages ...
    Can't exec "/tmp/ubuntu-drivers-common.config.uSPrCH": Permission denied at

  /tmp is mounted with noexec because running code from /tmp has been a
  vulnerability vector for several decades, hence reporting this as a
  vulnerability in perl-base.

  This error did not appear to prevent the update of ubuntu-drivers-
  common and "dpkg --verify ubuntu-drivers-common" returns 0.

  Looks like a package to me. Nevertheless, using "Did you mean..."
  offers "perl".
