This version resolves the vulnerability from the `tar-rs` transitive
dependency.
`cargo deny check` output:
```
error[vulnerability]: tar-rs incorrectly ignores PAX size headers if header size is nonzero
┌─ /home/fintohaps/Developer/heartwood/Cargo.lock:362:1
│
362 │ tar 0.4.44 registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index
│ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ security vulnerability detected
│
├ ID: RUSTSEC-2026-0068
├ Advisory: https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2026-0068
├ Versions 0.4.44 and below of tar-rs have conditional logic that skips the PAX
size header in cases where the base header size is nonzero.
As part of [CVE-2025-62518][astral-cve], the [astral-tokio-tar]
project was changed to correctly honor PAX size headers in the case where it
was different from the base header. This is almost the inverse of the
astral-tokio-tar issue.
Any discrepancy in how tar parsers honor file size can be used to create
archives that appear differently when unpacked by different archivers. In this
case, the tar-rs (Rust tar) crate is an outlier in checking for the header size
— other tar parsers (including e.g. Go [`archive/tar`][go-tar]) unconditionally
use the PAX size override. This can affect anything that uses the tar crate to
parse archives and expects to have a consistent view with other parsers.
This issue has been fixed in version 0.4.45.

Radicle Heartwood Protocol & Stack
Heartwood is the third iteration of the Radicle Protocol, a powerful
peer-to-peer code collaboration and publishing stack. The repository contains a
full implementation of Heartwood, complete with a user-friendly command-line
interface (rad) and network daemon (radicle-node).
Radicle was designed to be a secure, decentralized and powerful alternative to code forges such as GitHub and GitLab that preserves user sovereignty and freedom.
See the Radicle home page for general information, and the Zulip chat to talk to the project.
See the Protocol Guide for an in-depth description of how Radicle works.
Installation
Requirements
- Linux or Unix based operating system.
- Git 2.34 or later
- OpenSSH 9.1 or later with
