Still open? Only tagged in 2024?

It doesn't. It's just a separate fact that Rust allows LLM generated code in. The common argument is that Rust doesn't make everything it touches secure.

The common argument is that Rust doesn’t make everything it touches secure.

No one said Rust makes everything it touches secure. You should stop thinking in black and white. I said this specific issue would not have happened with Rust, because Rust catches this type of issue at compilation time.

This type of issue is called use-after-free.

I sent a link to a use-after-free bug in RedoxOS, the OS advertised as being written in Rust for security. The issue is tracked as CVE with severity 7.8.
