"The Globus Alliance reports :

The proxy generation tool (grid-proxy-init) creates the file, secures
the file to provide access only to owner and writes proxy to the file.
A race condition exists between the opening of the proxy credentials
file, and making sure it is safe file to write to. The checks to
ensure this file is accessible only to the owner take place using the
filename after the file is opened for writing, but before any data is
written.

Various components of the toolkit use files in shared directories to
store information, some being sensitive information. For example, the
tool to create proxy certificates, stores the generated proxy
certificate by default in /tmp. Specific vulnerabilities in handling
such files were reported in myproxy-admin-adduser, grid-ca-sign and
grid-security-config."
