Rust-proof your code with our new Testing Handbook chapter
Summary
Trail of Bits has published a new chapter in their Testing Handbook that teaches security testing techniques for Rust programs, covering both dynamic analysis (testing while code runs) and static analysis (examining code without running it). The guide includes information about Rust's security guarantees, specific tools like Clippy (a code linter) and Miri (which detects undefined behavior, or code that doesn't follow language rules), common security mistakes to watch for, and a new Claude Code plugin called rust-review that automatically checks Rust code for over a dozen types of security bugs.
