Part 11/12:
These bugs are rooted in system architecture and logical flaws, not memory safety issues. Rust’s strengths lie in preventing buffer overflows, dangling pointers, and memory corruption. In these cases, the issues are timing and privilege logic flaws—areas where Rust’s safety guarantees do not necessarily apply.
Even if parts of the system were rewritten in Rust, the underlying architecture and control flow might still harbor similar logic flaws, especially in interaction with system files and environment variables. Therefore, the root cause isn’t purely language-based but systemic.
