    Summary: Generated code can read and write out of bounds in safe code

    Details: Code generated by flatbuffers' compiler is `unsafe` but not marked as such. See https://github.com/google/flatbuffers/issues/6627 for details. All users that use generated code by `flatbuffers` compiler are recommended to: 1. not expose flatbuffer generated code as part of their public APIs 2. audit their code and look for any usage of `follow`, `push`, or any method that uses them (e.g. `self_follow`). 3. Carefuly go through the crates' documentation to understand which "safe" APIs are not intended to be used.
