40 <description>
41 <p>/usr/share/mk/bsd.lib.mk and /usr/share/mk/bsd.prog.mk create temporary
42 files insecurely, with predictable names (/tmp/_depend[PID]), and
43 without using $TMPDIR.

47 <p>The make include files allow local users to overwrite arbitrary files
48 via a symlink attack.

51 <workaround>
52 <p>There is no known workaround at this time.</p>
