Version 0.3.1 adjusts links in Cargo.toml and disables a few Clippy lints. There are no material changes to the crate, so my previous review stands.

No unsafe code, has tests and references to the original implementation.

This is an implementation of an HC-128 RNG.

The crate has no unsafe, and doesn't seem to do anything obviously fishy. I didn't compare the algorithm to the relevant paper though, so I don't vouch this is a faithful implementation.

cargo-vet does not verify reviewers' identity. You have to fully trust the source the audits are from.

Lib.rs has been able to verify that all files in the crate's tarball are in the crate's repository. Please note that this check is still in beta, and absence of this confirmation does not mean that the files don't match.

Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories, so there is a possibility that published crates have a misleading repository URL, or contain different code from the code in the repository.

To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open rand_hc. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of rand_hc v0.3.2 or view the source online.
