== Why is this an issue?
``++mktemp++``, ``++mkstemp++``, ``++mkstemps++`` or ``++mkdtemp++`` are useful functions to create temporary files and directories. They accept a ``++template++`` parameter which defines the path where the file should be created and which should contain at least six trailing "X"s to ensure the uniqueness of the filename.
=== Noncompliant code example
[source,cpp]
----
mkstemp("/tmp/file_XXXX"); // Noncompliant

=== Compliant solution
[source,cpp]
----
mkstemp("/tmp/file_XXXXXX"); // Compliant
