cargo update -p rustls-webpki -p tar moves rustls-webpki 0.103.9 -> 0.103.13
and tar 0.4.44 -> 0.4.46, both within the existing Cargo.toml bounds. They sit
under tauri-plugin-updater, which downloads and unpacks application updates, so
all six of their advisories were reachable in the shipped binary.
The remaining three can neither be fixed nor reached. quick-xml (2x 7.5 high)
is pulled by plist, which tauri only needs for Apple bundling: its per-target
trees are empty for both shipped targets and it appears solely under
x86_64-apple-darwin. Its fix is >= 0.41.0 while plist requires ^0.38, a
semver-incompatible boundary [patch.crates-io] cannot cross. rsa has no
published fix at all and is never compiled — its only parent is sqlx-mysql, an
artifact of sqlx's multi-backend graph on a SQLite project.
Leaving those three to red the daily gate forever would reproduce the signal
loss that #232 removed the `|| true` to fix, so they move into a versioned
.cargo/audit.toml. Entries are keyed by advisory ID, never by crate, so a new
advisory against the same crate still reds the gate; each carries its
reachability proof and its removal condition.
A blocking step in check-rust.yml re-proves that justification on every PR
touching src-tauri/ or .cargo/, and fails if a suppressed crate enters a
shipped target's graph — the scenario that would rot the list is itself a
src-tauri change. It separates cargo tree's exit status from its output (an
absent crate and a failed invocation both print nothing) and asserts a canary
crate is still found, so its silence proves something.
cargo audit: 9 vulnerabilities -> 0, warnings unchanged at 23
(cargo-audit 0.22.2, advisory-db 0bfde9d6 of 2026-07-27).
cargo check + cargo test green (106 tests); npm build + 871 vitest green.
Resolves#310
