If the issue is caused by rust not escaping arguments
That Windows API is terrible. There isn't a way to have the escaping done for you. Further, there is not an API where you do not need to do the escaping. There is no documentation on what kind of escaping is needed.
It's not a Rust problem.
The Windows API is the direct access to OS functions. If you're using the API it's your responsibility to do it securely and protect your users.
That's 100% a rust problem. Trusting another system to sanitize your input is about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Windows being shitty isn't an excuse for the language being shitty as well.
Except it's actually an "Every language and library that provides this feature" problem because literally no one was aware that this sanitization problem even existed, and Rust is among the first to actually fix it.
