There is a potential RCE with regards to Storable. We have added session ID validation to the session engine so that session backends based on Storable can reject malformed session IDs that may lead to exploitation of the RCE.

NAME

Dancer2::Core::Time - class to handle common helpers for time manipulations

VERSION

version 0.13

SYNOPSIS

my $time = Dancer2::Core::Time->new( expression => "1h" );
$time->seconds; # return 3600

DESCRIPTION

For consistency, whenever something needs to work with time, it needs to be expressed in seconds, with a timestamp. Although it's very convenient for the machine and calculations, it's not very handy for a human-being, for instance in a configuration file.

This class provides everything needed to translate any human-understandable expression into a number of seconds.

ATTRIBUTES

seconds

Number of seconds represented by the object. Defaults to 0.

epoch

The current epoch to handle. Defaults to seconds + time.

gmt_string

Convert the current value in epoch as a GMT string.

expression

Required. A human readable expression representing the number of seconds to provide.

The format supported is a number followed by an expression. It currently understands:

s second seconds sec secs
m minute minutes min mins
h hr hour hours
d day days
w week weeks
M month months
y year years

Months and years are currently fixed at 30 and 365 days. This may change. Anything else is used verbatim as the expression of a number of seconds.

Example:

2 hours, 3 days, 3d, 1 week, 3600, etc...
