Subject: BF: Use /var/run/fail2ban instead of /tmp for temp files in actions: see http://bugs... 
X-Git-Tag: upstream/0.8.4+svn20110323^2~8
X-Git-Url: http://git.onerussian.com/?p=deb%2Ffail2ban.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea7d352616b1e2232fcaa99b11807a86ce29ed8b

BF: Use /var/run/fail2ban instead of /tmp for temp files in actions: see bugs.debian.org/544232

It should be robust since /var/run/fail2ban is guaranteed to exist to carry the
socket file, and it will be owned by root (or some other dedicated fail2ban
user) thus avoiding possibility for the exploit
