Comment (by archon810):

 Just tried sanitize_file_name, but it fires twice (at least during the
 xmlrpc method). I also tried to use the filter from
 https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/19121/19121.2.patch, but
 that results in the same file being overwritten over and over (much worse)
 because the file name is modified too late and doesn't trigger a
 uniqueness check. My head is starting to spin from all the inconsistencies
 between the two upload functions (though it's probably three - there's one
 in atom-server too) and the side effects.

 Any further suggestions, Sergey?
