From ${URL} :

It was reported that wine uses /tmp/.wine-$UID as a directory for sockets and lock files. Malicious 
local user could create /tmp/.wine-$UID for another user's uid, preventing the other user from 
using wine. Moreover, the server_connect() function doesn't check if /tmp/.wine-$UID or its 
subdirectories are symlinks, so in some circumstances it might be possible to trick wine to connect 
to an unrelated socket.

@maintainer(s): after the bump, in case we need to stabilize the package, please let us know if it is ready for the stabilization or not.

Upstream has a bug that raised the point a while ago, no action.  Bringing it back to their attention noting that at least 3 distros have marked it as a security bug.  Will keep an eye on upstream.
Adding upstream URL.
