MySQL MYSQLD_Multi Insecure Temporary File Creation Vulnerability

mysqld_multi is reported prone to insecure temporary file handling. The script likely creates temporary files with predictable filenames.

An attacker may exploit this issue to launch symbolic link attacks that will most likely result in corruption of files when the vulnerable script is launched.

This issue would only affect Unix/Linux-based operating systems.
