How to Install libpam-tmpdir in Ubuntu 18.04



Install libpam-tmpdir by entering the following commands in the terminal:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install libpam-tmpdir

Description:

automatic per-user temporary directories

Many programs use $TMPDIR for storing temporary files. Not all of them are good at securing the permissions of those files. libpam-tmpdir sets $TMPDIR and $TMP for PAM sessions and sets the permissions quite tight. This helps system security by having an extra layer of security, making such symlink attacks and other /tmp based attacks harder or impossible
