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.
