No references and not compliant to all possible implementations of the POSIX
interfaces it utilizes. Manifestation of the unsafety requires the hostname
to be set to a 255 byte string by the machine operator and is thus not
directly exploitable, especially on Linux or glibc where it is impossible to
configure the system into such a state.

This is not meant to assign blame towards the author, Crate repository is
properly abandoned and reverse dependencies should switch to another
implementation.
