What to do

  1. Look for a maintained fork or alternative crate.
  2. If you cannot move yet, acknowledge it in your audit config so CI stays green while you plan: add "RUSTSEC-2026-0248" to ignore in .cargo/audit.toml or deny.toml, with a comment saying why.
  3. Find who pulls it in: cargo tree -i im.
