No indeed, but you have problems with folks who periodically clean out
their /tmp directories, especially based on age of files... choice of two
evils.
Something else I was wondering. The problem was with a setuid version of
screen. I have:
zsh, potato 2:04PM # ll `which screen`
-rwxr-sr-x 1 root utmp 216380 Sep 2 16:52 /usr/bin/screen*
zsh, potato 2:04PM #
The impossible question, someone tell me I'm an idiot: is there anything
exploitable through being setgid-utmp? :]
