Summary
Optional `Deserialize` implementations lacking validation
Details

When activating the non-default feature serialize, most structs implement serde::Deserialize without sufficient validation. This allows breaking invariants in safe code, leading to:

  • Undefined behavior in as_string() methods (which use std::str::from_utf8_unchecked() internally).
  • Panics due to failed assertions.

See https://github.com/gz/rust-cpuid/issues/43.
