Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: cargo-download crate (affected versions not specified)
Description: The issue concerns the cargo download subcommand, which is broken due to the disappearance of its maintainer from GitHub, resulting in no commits for a year. Using this downloader can lead to corrupted crates. The maintainer has not responded to maintenance takeover requests.
Recommendations: As a temporary workaround, consider using wget or curl directly instead of the cargo download subcommand until a patch is available. At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
