Issue 1512: CreateTemporaryFileName, potential security issue?
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1512

New issue report by Lars.Gaarden:
CreateTemporaryFileName returns a file name and not a fd.

I've not looked at the users of this function, but at first glance it seems
like it would create the same kind of security issue / race condition that
is caused by using mktemp instead of mkstemp; (between the time the
pathname is constructed and the file is created another process might have
created a file with the same name, leading to a possible security hole).
