The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Advisory: Miscompilation in cortex-m-rt 0.7.1 and 0.7.2
You might also want to add this to https://github.com/rustsec/advisory-db so that cargo audit and Dependabot surface it.

"This type of secure-by-default functionality is why we love Go"
The behavior of not extracting outside the specified directory has been the default since forever in Rust's tar. And then it had two RUSTSEC advisories for not handling this correctly in certain corner cases. The latest one in 2021.

`cargo audit` can now scan compiled binaries
However, I keep getting this error when running cargo audit bin ~/.cargo/bin/*, even if I replace * with a specific binary: Fetching advisory database from `https://github.com/RustSec/advisory-db.git` Loaded 467 security advisories (from C:\Users\jonah\.cargo\advisory-db) Updating crates.io index error: I/O operation failed: The system cannot find the path specified.

MIA Github Assignee on very minor PR
I usually open an issue asking if the crate is still maintained. If there isn't a response for a decent amount of time (like multiple months) and the crate is somewhat popular then it could be worth opening an unmaintained advisory in the advisory-db

Github Dependency graph adds vulnerability alerting support for Rust
FWIW the RustSec database is still not synced into the Github databse on a regular basis, even though they did an initial import of it. So the cargo audit github action is still relevant.

Migrating a JavaScript frontend to Leptos, a Rust framework
So, be sure to double-check your critical libraries and be sure their alternatives exist in the Rust ecosystem. Thereβs a good chance the crates you need are available in Rust's crates.io repository.

Learning Rust: A clean start
The previous section was very simple, this section is also very simple but introduces us to cargo which is Rust's package manager, as a JS dev my mind goes straight to NPM.

#2 Rust - Cargo Package Manager
Now, there has to be a place where all these packages come from. Similar to npmjs registry, where all node packages are registered, stored and retrieved, Rust also has something called crates.io where many helpful packages and dependencies are registered.

Underestimating rust for my Project.
The most thrilling aspect has been the joy of writing the backend. It's like every struct, enum, and method in Rust forms this interconnected Multiverse of code , which you can see in crates.io which is best Documentation experience I Ever Had.

Cargo has never frustrated me like npm or pip has. Does Cargo ever get frustrating? Does anyone ever find themselves in dependency hell?
Vendoring your packages was very tedious to even remotely get to work with Cargo. I spent a very long time getting Cargo to work together with cargo-local-registry. We vendor crates from crates.io and a custom internal registry.

How did I need to know about feature rwh_05 for winit?
So this is my question: Which way was the right to find it out? There is no info about this feature on crates.io. I also have no clue what exactly it does and why it is named rwh_05.
