These reviews are from cargo-vet. To add your review, set up cargo-vet and submit your URL to its registry.

The current version of uds is 0.4.2.

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

ub-risk-3 (implies ub-risk-4)

ub-risk-4

Extreme unsoundness.

does-not-implement-crypto (implies crypto-safe)

Inspection reveals that the crate in question does not attempt to implement any cryptographic algorithms on its own.

Note that certification of this does not require an expert on all forms of cryptography: it's expected for crates we import to be "good enough" citizens, so they'll at least be forthcoming if they try to implement something cryptographic. When in doubt, please ask an expert.

crypto-safe
Implied by other criteria

All crypto algorithms in this crate have been reviewed by a relevant expert.

Note: If a crate does not implement crypto, use does-not-implement-crypto, which implies crypto-safe, but does not require expert review in order to audit for.


Crates in the crates.io registry are tarball snapshots uploaded by crates' publishers. The registry is not using crates' git repositories. There is absolutely no guarantee that the repository URL declared by the crate belongs to the crate, or that the code in the repository is the code inside the published tarball.

To review the actual code of the crate, it's best to use cargo crev open uds. Alternatively, you can download the tarball of uds v0.4.2 or view the source online.
