`aliasable` Unsound

[steffahn]

See this issue: avitex/rust-aliasable#3

The issue closed and “fixed”, but the fix is not published yet (for more than a year now). Only affected version at the moment: 0.1.3 (previous versions didn’t have the relevant API yet), which is currently the latest version.

I guess, in case no-one else kindly wants to pick this up, I will eventually have to read through the procedure of how to do a PR for the vulnerability here myself 😁

Hi many tanks for the contribution and proactively asking the maintainer for the fixed release -

Would love to have that as actionable fix before merging a PR :)

Would be really lovely if you could send a PR for this! ❤️

It would be - e.g. if 0.1.4 is the patched version and everything below 0.1.3 are unaffected whilst leaving 0.1.3 flagged:

[versions]
patched = [">= 0.1.4"]
unaffected = ["< 0.1.3"]
