  Sun Nov 23 13:37:44 2008 FANY [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: _utf8_on() does not work for tainted values
$ perl -MEncode=_utf8_on,is_utf8 -le '$_=shift;Encode::_utf8_on$_;print is_utf8($_)||"no"' foo 1 $ perl -T -MEncode=_utf8_on,is_utf8 -le '$_=shift;Encode::_utf8_on$_;print is_utf8($_)||"no"' foo no While there may be good reasons for not having the utf8 bit blindly activated for tainted data, I think this should at least be documented, and maybe the function should emit a warning or even die when called for a tainted value. Also see <http://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=41161> on this issue. Regards, fany
