The vulnerability description explicitly names get_runtime_dir as the vulnerable function. The commit diff shows security improvements in this function: original code used basic mkdir/chmod without verifying directory ownership, symlink status, or access permissions. This allowed TOCTOU attacks where an attacker could first create a legitimate directory, then replace it with a symlink after validation. The CWE-59 classification confirms this is a link resolution issue. The patch adds lstat checks, ownership verification, and proper cleanup - directly addressing the vulnerability in this function.
