-------------------------------------------
Summary: Fix validation of dates
Key: CASSANDRA-4441
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4441
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sylvain Lebresne
Assignee: Sylvain Lebresne
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.1.3
Our date validation (timestamp type) doesn't validate that the date is correct,
i.e. it allows dates like 2011-42-42, because DateUtils.parseDate() doesn't do
the validation (don't ask me how it can generate a timestamp from bogus date,
apparently it can).
The easy fix is to use DateUtils.parseDateStrictly(), which does the
validation. This does require to update commons-lang to >= 2.5 (we have 2.4).
