Solaris: not vulnerable (probably since 2.4).

6210:   seteuid(10000)                                  = 0
6210:   open64("/tmp/crontabWCaqim", O_RDONLY)          = 5
6210:   seteuid(0)                                      = 0

Root owned file:

6225:   open64("/tmp/crontab9qaakm", O_RDONLY)          Err#13 EACCES
6225:   unlink("/tmp/crontab9qaakm")                    Err#1 EPERM

This was changed in may '94 in response to bug 1160749.

Not sure if there are patches for really old releases
(101572-03 for 2.3 appears to cover this)
