What to do

  1. See which version you have: cargo tree -i tauri (it also shows which of your dependencies pulls it in).
  2. Update within your version requirement: cargo update -p tauri. If the fix is a newer major or minor than your requirement allows, raise it in Cargo.toml (for example tauri = "1.0.6") or update the dependency that pulls it in.
  3. Check again with cargo audit, or paste your Cargo.lock into our Cargo.toml checker.

Details from the advisory

It is possible for readDir to incorrectly enumerate files from a symlinked directory if called recursively when specifying an empty string for the dir parameter as outlined in this issue.

This is corrected in this PR by checking if a directory is a symlink before reading from it.
