cargo-audit

Open Source

cargo-audit scans a Cargo.lock for crates with security vulnerabilities reported to the RustSec Advisory Database. Run it at the project root or in CI before a release; cargo audit bin checks compiled binaries, and an optional fix feature can update vulnerable requirements in Cargo.toml.
