Package: ntp
Version: 1:4.2.4p6+dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Ntpd leaves stale files in /tmp:
# ls -lt /tmp/ntp*
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 7 11:41 /tmp/ntp7sDRlU
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 7 01:28 /tmp/ntpJlA0PZ
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 6 21:44 /tmp/ntpZ4Wl1R
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 6 21:44 /tmp/ntpdE80Lf
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 6 11:10 /tmp/ntpRPBzDv
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 5 12:54 /tmp/ntp9zKmSp
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 4 15:47 /tmp/ntpFCxeMj
-rw------- 1 root root 373 Oct 4 15:47 /tmp/ntpkp6zkf
-rw------- 1 root root 36 Oct 4 13:34 /tmp/ntp0aIUiv
-rw------- 1 root root 36 Oct 4 13:34 /tmp/ntpn2Nkw8
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 3 12:39 /tmp/ntpQvgk8M
-rw------- 1 root root 255 Oct 3 12:39 /tmp/ntpgkeImV
-rw------- 1 root root 112 Oct 1 15:51 /tmp/ntpkzdSId
[... and it goes on ...]
Such a file looks like this:
# cat /tmp/ntp7sDRlU
ts1.univie.ac.at 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ts2.univie.ac.at 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ntp1.lrz-muenchen.de 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ntp2.lrz-muenchen.de 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ptbtime1.ptb.de 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ptbtime2.ptb.de 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
ntp.liwest.at 3 4 6 10 512 0 0 *
Ntpd should clean-up temporary files.
