# `socket2` invalidly assumes the memory layout of std::net::SocketAddr
|
||||
|
||||
The [`socket2`](https://crates.io/crates/socket2) crate has assumed `std::net::SocketAddrV4`
|
||||
and `std::net::SocketAddrV6` have the same memory layout as the system C representation
|
||||
`sockaddr`. It has simply casted the pointers to convert the socket addresses to the
|
||||
system representation. The standard library does not say anything about the memory
|
||||
layout, and this will cause invalid memory access if the standard library
|
||||
changes the implementation. No warnings or errors will be emitted once the
|
||||
change happens.
