Package: atop
Version: 1.23-1
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

Hi,

I've just noticed that atop keeps the runtime data in /tmp/atop* directories
or files (mentioned on man page too). I think it was established from a 
discussion on debian-devel@l.d.o that this is potentially a security
vulnerability. Probably it should keep its temporary runtime data in its own
directory under /var/run (or /run for next release).

Please consider to backport the fix for 'stable' too.

Thanks
