Alexander Wirt discovered that local users can block other users from using tmux by creating suitably named directories in /tmp:

<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=529082>

This is a minor local denial of service issue. This was reported publicly in 2009, so it receive an ID for that year.
