Vulnerable code :
-----------------

In arc.c :

210         /* see where temp files go */
211 #if     !_MTS
212         arctemp = calloc(1, STRLEN);
213         if (!(arctemp2 = envfind("ARCTEMP")))
214                 arctemp2 = envfind("TMPDIR");
215         if (arctemp2) {
216                 strcpy(arctemp, arctemp2);
217                 n = strlen(arctemp);
218                 if (arctemp[n - 1] != CUTOFF)
219                         arctemp[n] = CUTOFF;
220         }
221 #if     UNIX
222         else    strcpy(arctemp, "/tmp/");
223 #endif
224 #if     !MSDOS
225         {
226                 static char tempname[] = "AXXXXXX";
227                 strcat(arctemp, mktemp(tempname));
228         }
229 #else
230         strcat(arctemp, "$ARCTEMP");
231 #endif
232 #else
233         guinfo("SHFSEP  ", gotinf);
234         sepchr[0] = gotinf[0];
235         guinfo("SCRFCHAR", gotinf);
236         tmpchr[0] = gotinf[0];
237         arctemp = "-$$$";
238         arctemp[0] = tmpchr[0];
239 #endif
240         arctemp2 = NULL;
241
242 #if     !UNIX
243         /* avoid any case problems with arguments */
244
245         for (n = 1; n < num; n++)       /* for each argument */
246                 upper(arg[n]);  /* convert it to uppercase */
247 #else
248         /* avoid case problems with command options */
249         upper(arg[1]);          /* convert to uppercase */
250 #endif
251
252         /* create archive names, supplying defaults */
253 #if     UNIX
254         if (!stat(arg[2],&sbuf)) {
255                 if ((sbuf.st_mode & S_IFMT) == S_IFDIR)
256                         makefnam(arg[2],".arc",arcname);
257                 else
258                         strcpy(arcname,arg[2]);
259         } else
260                 makefnam(arg[2],".arc",arcname);
261 #else
262         makefnam(arg[2], ".ARC", arcname);
263 #endif

Take a look on a the right off temporary files in /tmp :

-rw-r--r--   1 root root       1564 Sep  5 10:28 A3C6Zs4.arc

The file should not be world readable.

The same problem for marc.c
