It was discovered that menu-cache, the LXDE implementation of freedesktop’s menu cache, insecurely uses /tmp for a socket file, allowing a local user to cause a denial of service (menu unavailability).
For Debian 8 jessie, these problems have been fixed in version 1.0.0-1+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your menu-cache packages.
