Sourced from chrono's releases.
0.4.20
chrono is a date and time library for Rust and 0.4.20 is the first chrono release since Sep 2020. There has been a long hiatus since the previous maintainer was no longer able to spend much time on the crate; thanks to
@quodlibetor
for their stewardship of the chrono crate for many years! The new maintainers are@djc
and@esheppa
. Our first priority has been fixing the soundness issues with calls tolocaltime_r()
as first reported in #499 and the RUSTSEC-2020-0159 advisory. In order to do this we adapted code from the tz-rs crate maintained by@x-hgg-x
for use within chrono -- thanks for working on that! With the new implementation, chrono uses safe Rust code to parse the timezone data files on Unix platforms directly instead of relying on libc.Due to compatibility reasons, this release does not yet remove the time 0.1 dependency, though chrono 0.4.20 does not depend on the vulnerable parts of the time 0.1.x versions. In a future 0.5 release, we will remove the time dependency.
The minimum supported Rust version for 0.4.20 is 1.32.0, which is intentionally still quite conservative. If you are using chrono 0.4 with a Rust version older than 1.52, we'd like to hear from you since we'd like to further modernize the code base to ease maintenance.
