    Summary: Vec-to-vec transmutations could lead to heap overflow/corruption

    Details: Affected versions of this crate switched the length and capacity arguments in the Vec::from_raw_parts() constructor, which could lead to memory corruption or data leakage. The flaw was corrected by using the constructor correctly.
