High (7.1) in gitoxidelabs gix-date. EPSS 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in gix-date 0.12.0.
A flaw was found in gix-date. The `gix_date::parse::TimeBuf::as_str` function can generate strings containing invalid non-UTF8 characters. This issue violates the internal safety invariants of the `TimeBuf` component, leading to undefined behavior when these malformed strings are subsequently processed. This could potentially result in application instability or other unforeseen consequences.
