If the attacker manages to create files in the directory used to collect log files in supportutils before version 3.1-5.7.1 (e.g. with CVE-2018-19638) he can kill arbitrary processes on the local machine.
Creating and using insecure temporary files can leave application and system data vulnerable to attack.
