Re: [ Hackerslab bug_paper ] HP-UX crontab temporary file symboliclink vulnerability

[Bill Sommerfeld <sommerfeld () orchard arlington ma us>]

For what it's worth, I'm unable to reproduce this problem on NetBSD;
its crontab(1) program keeps the temporary file open while the editor
runs, and then does a rewind() on it to reread it from the beginning,
so it can't be confused into reading a different file if you delete,
rename, or replace the temporary file..
