🎯 What: Fixed an insecure predictable temporary file creation in AabParser.extractApk where Date.now() was used to generate a filename in a shared temporary directory.
⚠️ Risk: A predictable temporary file name in a shared directory like os.tmpdir() allows for a local symlink attack, potentially leading to unauthorized file overwrites or privilege escalation if the application is run with higher privileges.
🛡️ Solution: Replaced the predictable filename generation with fs.mkdtemp, which creates a securely randomized temporary directory within os.tmpdir(). The temporary file is now created inside this secure directory, and the cleanup logic removes the entire temporary directory.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

In AabParser.extractApk, the temporary output path is now created via fs.mkdtemp as a unique directory, with output.apks placed inside it. The finally cleanup removes the entire directory instead of the individual .apks file.

Switches from a timestamped .apks file in os.tmpdir() to a mkdtemp-created unique directory; cleanup in finally now removes the directory.

A bunny digs a fresh new hole,
Each APK gets its own little bowl,
No leftover crumbs in the temp tree,
Clean up the whole burrow — tidy and free!
