Affected packages
• crates.io vec-const: < 2.0.0 → fixed in 2.0.0
Description
Affected versions of this crate claimed to construct a const `Vec` with nonzero length and capacity, but that cannot be done because such a `Vec` requires a pointer from an allocator.
The implementation was later changed to just construct a `std::borrow::Cow`.
