error[vulnerability]: Denial of Service via Stack Exhaustion
    ┌─ /github/workspace/Cargo.lock:301:1
    │
301 │ time 0.3.45 registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index
    │ ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ security vulnerability detected
    │
    ├ ID: RUSTSEC-2026-0009
    ├ Advisory: https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2026-0009
    ├ ## Impact
      
      When user-provided input is provided to any type that parses with the RFC 2822 format, a denial of
      service attack via stack exhaustion is possible. The attack relies on formally deprecated and
      rarely-used features that are part of the RFC 2822 format used in a malicious manner. Ordinary,
      non-malicious input will never encounter this scenario.
      
      ## Patches
      
      A limit to the depth of recursion was added in v0.3.47. From this version, an error will be returned
      rather than exhausting the stack.
      
      ## Workarounds
      
      Limiting the length of user input is the simplest way to avoid stack exhaustion, as the amount of
      the stack consumed would be at most a factor of the length of the input.
    ├ Announcement: https://github.com/time-rs/time/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#0347-2026-02-05
    ├ Solution: Upgrade to >=0.3.47 (try `cargo update -p time`)
    ├ time v0.3.45
