AI-suggested

Until a fix is available, avoid passing untrusted input containing non-ASCII decimal digits to Date::Manip parsing functions or implement input validation to restrict date strings to ASCII digits only.

Description

Date::Manip versions through 7.00 for Perl incorrectly parse dates containing non-ASCII decimal digits, resulting in corrupted date values without parse errors. This occurs because the parsing regexes match all Unicode decimal digits, but numeric validation truncates at the first non-ASCII digit, causing shifted year, month, or day values. This can lead to logic errors in applications relying on accurate date parsing, such as expiry checks or retention windows.
