Description:
Make production Rust binaries auditable
Type: Formula  |  Latest Version: 0.7.2@0  |  Tracked Since: Dec 17, 2025

Category: Security
Tags: rust security auditing devops supply-chain
Install: brew install cargo-auditable
About:
cargo-auditable injects build-time metadata into Rust binaries, enabling comprehensive vulnerability auditing of production software. It allows tools like cargo-audit to verify dependencies against known security advisories, even on stripped binaries where standard lockfiles are unavailable. This ensures your compiled applications remain verifiable and secure throughout their lifecycle.
Key Features:
  • Embeds complete dependency trees directly into compiled Rust binaries
  • Works with stripped binaries and release builds without bloat
  • Seamless integration with cargo-audit for vulnerability scanning
  • Zero runtime performance overhead
  • Supports all standard Rust build targets
Use Cases:
  • Auditing production deployments where source lockfiles are unavailable
  • Compliance verification for supply chain security requirements
  • Continuous security monitoring of deployed Rust applications
  • Incident response forensics for vulnerability impact assessment
Alternatives:
  • cargo-audit – cargo-audit checks vulnerabilities but requires lockfiles; cargo-auditable makes binaries self-auditable
  • cve-bin-tool – Multi-language scanner; cargo-auditable is Rust-specific and more accurate for Rust binaries
