The clearest answer is already there in the warning message. Replace
your use of ‘tempnam’ with ‘mkstemp’.

If you don't know what that means because you didn't write the code,
then this is for whoever is maintaining that code. Read it, learn what
it does, find (or write) its unit tests to make sue you don't break
anything; then, change that usage as suggested.
