Warning to all:
I'd  be wary running this 70-calibreassaultmount.sh on multi user systems. The 
temporary file used to drop a payload is created in an insecure manner and can 
be exploited to execute code under the context of the user. 
I would like ubuntu for not including this obviously exploitable test case in 
the face of an arrogant security researcher.
