TorBrowser creates temp files in Linux /tmp & Windows %temp% and OSX(various places) during the file downloads dialog & when using internal browser video player
1. Open a webpage with downloadable links (http://arxiv.org/abs/1207.5216 for example).
2. Select file to download (pdf for example: http://arxiv.org/pdf/1207.5216v2).
3. See the dialog: `External application is needed to handle` with two buttons: `launch` and `cancel`.
4. Only launch is available to start download. Select it.
5. Second dialog asks to open with `/usr/bin/xpdf (default)` or `Save`.
6. Don't press `Save` immediately. See in a terminal random name of file, sometimes with a part of contents:
{{{
ls -la /tmp
$ file /tmp/oeXvw4D+.pdf.part
/tmp/oeXvw4D+.pdf.part: PDF document, version 1.5
}}}
Tbb ignored `tor-browser_en-US/tmp` and use system /tmp
7. After pressing `Save` file removed from /tmp.
This behaviour potentially affects users local anonimity with unencrypted and non-attached to memory system /tmp dirs; and affects users with portable TorBrowser versions. Partially downloaded files will saved in /tmp in the cases of TBB crushes or not completely erased. Will be preferably to isolate TorBrowser activity in user local catalogs only.
