We have 2.3.3, so this don't apply.
Instead we are affected by CVE-2020-11867...

I know it...
But we cannot update to 2.4.x, because it needs cmake >= 3.15, while we have only 3.7.2 and downgrading the requirement won't work.
2016.1 is becoming quickly unmaintainable. :-(
Comment 3 Zombie Ryushu 2021-01-06 12:44:19 MSK
Audacity through 2.3.3 saves temporary files to /var/tmp/audacity-$USER by
default. After Audacity creates the temporary directory, it sets its
permissions to 755. Any user on the system can read and play the temporary
audio .au files located there (CVE-2020-11867).

This was fixed in new release ages ago...
