Details

While triaging your project, our bug fixing tool generated the following message(s)-

In file(s): mask.py, slice_.py, styles.py, surface.py, imagedata_utils.py, surface_process.py, bitmap_reader.py, project.py, segment.py, there is a method that creates a temporary file using an unsafe API mktemp. The use of this method is discouraged in the Python documentation. iCR suggested that a temporary file should be created using mkstemp which is a safe API. iCR replaced the usage of mktemp with mkstemp.

Here are a few reasons why you shouldn't use mktemp

Changes

  • Replaced method mktemp with a safer method: mkstemp
  • Closed the file-descriptors associated with mkstemp to prevent file-descriptor leaks

Testing

No tests were performed due to lack of documentation/script. With proper guidance, I'd be happy to test the code on your behalf.
