Client library for accessing the [RustSec Security Advisory Database]:
fetches the [advisory-db] (or other compatible) git repository and
audits `Cargo.lock` files against it.

[Documentation]

## About

The `rustsec` crate is primarily intended to be used by the [cargo-audit] crate
for the purposes of identifying vulnerable crates in Cargo.lock files.

However, it may be useful if you would like to consume the RustSec advisory
database in other capacities.

## Minimum Supported Rust Version

Rust **1.73** or higher.

Minimum supported Rust version can be changed in the future, but it will be
done with a minor version bump.
