What changed, and why it matters
This change pins the version of a fuzzing tool used only in internal testing. It does not alter any code that end users run, and there is no indication it fixes a security vulnerability.
No security action needed. Treat as a normal tooling/maintenance change.
Security signals we found
No strong security signals were identified.
Evidence from the diff
The commit modifies fuzz/fuzz.sh to install cargo-fuzz version 0.12.0 explicitly instead of the latest version. This is a build/test tooling change intended to make fuzzing CI reproducible. It does not touch the rust-bitcoin library code, consensus logic, cryptography, or any public API.
