I don’t understand. Is it possible to mathematically prove that a codebase written in rust has no vulnerabilities or something?


Think they are referring to use after free (UAF) behavior. Safe Rust doesn't allow UAF.

You can violate Rust invariants using bugs in compiler.


No, but you can transpile (incredibly trivial) Rust programs into Coq that can be than formally verified to give a defined output for all possible inputs.


No idea what this is about but sounds like a test with extra steps


Test all the steps. All possible steps.
