out_reference 0.1.x is unsound, needs advisory

There was no change for the past two years however I'm not eager to declare a small crate with a single specific job unmaintained if it works. So I'd suggest waiting a bit if the issue gets reply before claiming so.

I'll be passively maintaining out-reference, but there isn't much to add to this crate. Feel free to send PRs to add new features, and I'll verify and merge them.

The unsoundness deserves an advisory.

Passive maintenance status is not usually something we make an advisory for; it's designed for crates with entirely unreachable maintainers.

We currently have a lot of advisories to review, so I would appreciate if you could fill out the advisory template and submit it as a PR.

See https://github.com/RustSec/advisory-db/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Btw. I've yanked all previous versions of out-reference, so the damage should be minimal, I'll leave the advisory PR to @Kixunil as I don't have time to work on out-reference right now.

My time is also not great but I will try to do it later.

@Kixunil would you like to try to send us advisory on this still ? I know it's been like a year but :woman_shrugging: ought to ask first

Oh, forgot about this and also will be busy at least until Monday. If anyone wants to do it go ahead.

Kixunil avatar Sep 08 '22 11:09 Kixunil

@Kixunil Monday is fine if you got time :) Help would be most appreciated. Thanks
