CVE-2008-5138 pam_mount insecure tempfile creation - to update or not?

[Till Maas <opensource@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hiyas,

there was a bug report opened because of an possible vulnerability in 
pam_mount, which I would not really consider one. Because it cannot be 
triggered under normal circumstances because the script would fail before an 
insecure tempfile is used. More details are available here:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=472109#c2

The question is now, whether I should update the package without the affected 
script to make everyone aware of this or just keep it as is.

Regards,
Till
