As proposed in #240 and tracked in #414, this PR translates all advisories into the new "V3" advisory format, which is based on Markdown with leading TOML front matter. This format makes it easier to see rendered Markdown syntax descriptions, whether rendered by an IDE or GitHub. This should help with both crafting advisories initially as well as review, and ideally encourages more lengthy descriptions. Support for this format shipped in `cargo-audit` v0.12.0 on May 6th, 2020.

# Multiple memory safety issues
|
|
|
|
Affected versions contain multiple memory safety issues, such as:
|
|
|
|
- Unsoundly coercing immutable references to mutable references
|
|
- Unsoundly extending lifetimes of strings
|
|
- Adding the `Send` marker trait to objects that cannot be safely sent between threads
|
|
|
|
This may result in a variety of memory corruption scenarios, most likely use-after-free.
|
|
|
|
A signficant refactoring effort has been conducted to resolve these issues.
