Byte_struct stack and unpack structure as raw bytes with packed or bit field layout. An issue was discovered in the byte_struct crate before 0.6.1 for Rust. There can be a drop of uninitialized memory if a certain deserialization method panics.

The read_bytes_default_le function for [T; n] arrays, used to deserialize arrays of T from bytes created a [T; n] array with std::mem::uninitialized and then called T's deserialization method.

If T's deserialization method panicked, the uninitialized memory could drop invalid objects.

This flaw was corrected in a535678 by removing the unsafe block and using a .map function to deserialize each element of the array instead.
