Javier Fernández-Sanguino Peña discovered that a script included in
lm-sensors, used to read temperature/voltage/fan sensors, creates a temporary
file with a predictable filename, leaving it vulnerable for a symlink
attack.

Note that this is the same set of security fixes put into stable in
DSA-814-1.
