| Loom | https://github.com/carllerche/loom | Loom is a model checker for concurrent Rust code. It exhaustively explores the behaviors of code under the C11 memory model, which Rust inherits. |

| Name | Repository | Description |
|---|---|---|
| MIRAI | https://github.com/facebookexperimental/MIRAI | Mirai is an abstract interpreter for the Rust compiler's mid-level intermediate representation (MIR). It is intended to become a widely used static analysis tool for Rust. |
| Prusti | https://github.com/viperproject/prusti-dev | A static verifier for Rust, based on the Viper verification infrastructure. |
| Crux | https://github.com/GaloisInc/crucible | Symbolic execution tool to run tests on all possible inputs, exhaustively. |
| Rudra | https://github.com/sslab-gatech/Rudra | Static analyzer for finding memory safety bugs in unsafe Rust code. |
| L3X | https://github.com/VulnPlanet/l3x/ | AI-driven Static Analyzer. |
| Name | Repository | Description |
|---|---|---|
| sanitizers | built into the compiler | Provides sanitizers for checking uninitialized memory access, uses of freed memory, memory leaks and data races between threads. |
| Miri | https://github.com/rust-lang/miri | An experimental interpreter for Rust's mid-level intermediate representation (MIR). It can run binaries and test suites of cargo projects and detect certain classes of undefined behavior, including Rust-specific ones that sanitizers cannot detect. Moreover, it can do this for arbitrary CPU architectures independent of the host ("cross-interpretation"). |
Language-independent tools such as Valgrind, Dr. Memory, libdiffuzz etc. also work.
| Name | Repository | Description |
|---|---|---|
| untrusted.rs | https://github.com/briansmith/untrusted | Allows for reliable and efficient parsing of untrusted inputs in Rust. |
| dangerous | https://github.com/avitex/rust-dangerous | Similar to untrusted but with a different API and more verbose error messages |
| semval | https://github.com/slowtec/semval | Library for semantic validation of complex data structures in Rust. |
| Name | Repository | Description |
|---|---|---|
| scudo | https://github.com/google/rust-scudo | Rust bindings for the LLVM project's Scudo hardened allocator. |
| mimalloc | https://github.com/purpleprotocol/mimalloc_rust | Rust bindings for Microsoft's mimalloc allocator. Security features are an optional build-time configuration. |
| Name | Repository | Description |
|---|---|---|
| RustSec Advisory Database | https://github.com/RustSec/advisory-db/ | The RustSec Advisory Database is a repository of security advisories filed against Rust crates published via https://crates.io. Works closely with Cargo Audit. |
| RustSec Advisory Client | https://github.com/RustSec/rustsec-crate | Client library for accessing the RustSec Security Advisory Database: fetches the advisory-db (or other compatible) git repository and audits Cargo.lock files against it. It is mainly used by Cargo Audit but may be useful if you would like to consume the RustSec advisory database in other capacities. |
| Cargo Audit | https://github.com/RustSec/cargo-audit | Audit Cargo.lock for crates with security vulnerabilities reported to the RustSec Advisory Database. |
| Crates Audit | https://gitlab.com/zachreizner/crates-audit/ | A tool to cross-reference the crates.io index with the RustSec Advisory database. |
| Cargo deny | https://github.com/EmbarkStudios/cargo-deny | A tool for checking your dependencies given some set of predefined rules. It can check for license conflict, banned crates, vulnerabilities and source of crates. The rules are defined in the deny.toml file and can be configured for your needs. |
| Name | Repository | Description |

| Siderophile | https://github.com/trailofbits/siderophile/ | A program that list statistics of functions that use unsafe code in their call graph. It helps find fuzzing candidates. |
| Name | Repository | Description |
