Rust would not of fixed this
Rust isn’t magical
Explain how a use after free could occur in safe rust, because to my knowledge, that is exactly the kind of thing rust does protect against.
Duh, by wrapping it in an
unsafeblock.Boom.
Do you know what a use-after-free bug is? Rust was literally designed to make this type of memory bug impossible.
You never say “would not of”. It’s “would not have”.
Rust would have prevented this, because the borrow checker prevents use-after-free vulnerabilites.
