Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

GitHub’s database of security advisories is now open source
We already have fixed versions (where they exist) - example link below.
On backfilling the data to include advisories from before 2017 - absolutely. So far we've done this in a relatively ad-hoc way - you should already find that the most important (severe and wide-reaching) CVEs from before 2017 are in the database (and if there are any that aren't you think should be we'd love you to open an issue on the DB). We want to do a more complete backfill in the near future.

- GitHub's database of known vulnerabilities is now open source
- Security vulnerability database inclusive of CVEs and GitHub originated security advisories from the world of open source software

Rust Tooling: 8 tools that will increase your productivity
cargo-audit is a simple Cargo tool for detecting vulnerable Rust crates. You can install it with cargo install cargo-audit, use cargo audit and you’re done! Any vulnerable crates will appear below, like so:
-
Rust Offline?
Further we use cargo-auditable and cargo-audit as part of both our pipeline and regular scanning of all deployed services. This makes our InfoSec and Legal super happy since it means they can also monitor compliance with licenses and patch/update timings.
-
Sudo and Su Being Rewritten in Rust for Memory Safety
Yeah your decade old single header libs get so many audits by comparison.

cargo is not npm
-
A CVE has been issued for hyper. Denial of Service possible
PSA: before filing CVEs for other people's projects, file an issue with https://rustsec.org instead
-
Should atomics be unsafe?
Historically, such serious bugs get communicated broadly and addressed very quickly via security advisory blog posts and on https://rustsec.org.
-
Rust from a security perspective, where is it vulnerable?
For known vulnerabilities we have the rustsec vulnerability database. You could have a look over there for inspiration. There's also the related cargo-audit for checking dependencies for known vulnerabilities.
-
capnproto-rust: out-of-bound memory access bug
Would be cool if this was also reported to https://rustsec.org/ that way cargo audit could pick up and alert the users about it.
-
`cargo audit` can now scan compiled binaries
P.S. I also made scanning binaries 5x faster in the latest release of cargo audit.
-
My Rust development workflow (after 3+ years)
Thanks to cargo and the community, project maintenance is straightforward in rust. You'll need to install cargo-outdated and cargo-audit:
-
Mental models for learning Rust
Use the automated tools to assist you in the maintenance of your projects: rustfmt, clippy, cargo update, cargo outdated and cargo-audit.
