Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions openCryptoki versions prior to 2.4.1

Description The issue allows local users to create or set world-writable permissions on arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the .pkapi xpk or .pkcs11spinloc file in /tmp. This is possible when using spinlocks.
