Hi

There is a CVE[0] issued against lha. It also leads to a patch[1], which
apparently fixes the problem. Could you please investigate this.
The CVE text says:

lharc.c in lha does not securely create temporary files, which might
allow local users to read or write files by creating a file before LHA
is invoked.

Please remember mentioning the CVE number in your changelog entry.
Thanks for your efforts.
Cheers
Steffen
