Unsafe Code Analysis #328

@gtema

Description

@gtema

DESCRIPTION: Complete analysis of unsafe code blocks was not possible due to tool limitations in accessing repository source files directly. The presence and safety of unsafe code remains unverified.

RECOMMENDED IMMEDIATE ACTIONS:

  1. Run cargo geiger to measure unsafe code usage across codebase
  2. Document all unsafe blocks with detailed safety invariants
  3. Minimize unsafe surface area - use #![forbid(unsafe_code)] in modules that don't require it
  4. Conduct manual review of all unsafe blocks focusing on:
    • Memory transmutation operations
    • Raw pointer dereferencing
    • FFI boundaries (if calling C libraries for crypto)
    • Uninitialized memory access
    • Manual memory management
  5. Run Miri (Rust interpreter) to detect undefined behavior
  6. Enable AddressSanitizer and ThreadSanitizer in testing
