This advisory is also published as RUSTSEC-2023-0074.
The Ref
methods into_ref
, into_mut
, into_slice
, and into_slice_mut
are unsound and may allow safe code to exhibit undefined behavior when used with Ref<B, T>
where B
is cell::Ref
or cell::RefMut
. Note that these methods remain sound when used with B
types other than cell::Ref
or cell::RefMut
.
See https://github.com/google/zerocopy/issues/716 for a more in-depth analysis.
The current plan is to yank the affected versions soon. See https://github.com/google/zerocopy/issues/679 for more detail.
