Bug #15398: Typo in regex makes wrong values accepted as float
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15398#change-70012

Author: Pieter van de Bruggen
Status: Closed
Priority: High
Assignee: Daniel Pittman
Category: language
Target version: 3.0.0
Affected Puppet version: 
Keywords: 
Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/908


Puppet::Parser::Scope.number? checks if a string matches 
/–?\d+(:?.\d+|(:?.\d+)?e\d+)$/ and calls to_f on it if so. The regex should 
rather be /–?\d+(?:.\d+|(?:.\d+)?e\d+)$/, swapping ‘:’ and ‘?’ to use non 
capturing groups.

The current implementation will accept “3.:14”, and cast it into 3.0. Note that 
all numbers that should be accepted are dutifully accepted.
