Package proc-macro-error
Version 1.0.4
URL https://gitlab.com/CreepySkeleton/proc-macro-error/-/issues/20
Date 2024-09-01

proc-macro-error's maintainer seems to be unreachable, with no commits for 2 years, no releases pushed for 4 years, and no activity on the GitLab repo or response to email.

proc-macro-error also depends on syn 1.x, which may be bringing duplicate dependencies into dependant build trees.

Possible Alternative(s)

Multiple soundness issues

Details
Status unsound
Package fast-float
Version 0.2.0
URL aldanor/fast-float-rust#35
Date 2024-10-31

fast-float contains multiple soundness issues:

  1. Undefined behavior when checking input length, which has been merged but no package pubished.
  2. Many functions marked as safe with non-local safety guarantees

The library is also unmaintained.

Alternatives

For quickly parsing floating-point numbers third-party crates are generally no longer needed. A fast float parsing algorithm by the author of lexical has been merged into libcore. When requiring direct parsing from bytes and/or partial parsers, the fast-float2 fork of fast-float containing these security patches and reduces overall usage of unsafe.
