| Subject: | Refuse utf-8 email addresses |
Currently, Email::Valid 0.182 accepts utf-8 emails like adriano-uğur@blah.com
That happens because the code checks for patterns like [^\x80-\xff] which will pass on utf8
chars that are not in latin-1.
For example, running the test:
###
use strict;
use warnings;
use Test::More tests => 2;
use Email::Valid ();
ok( Email::Valid->address("adriano-f\xE9res\@blah.com") );
ok( Email::Valid->address("adriano-u\x{11F}ur\@blah.com") );
###
outputs
$ prove -v utf8-addresses.t
utf8-addresses....
1..2
not ok 1
# Failed test at utf8-addresses.t line 9.
ok 2
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 2.
Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 1/2 subtests

utf8-addresses (Wstat: 256 Tests: 2 Failed: 1)

Result: FAIL
but both adriano-féres@blah.com and adriano-uğur@blah.com are bad e-mail addresses.
A simple change to make that work is to add "use bytes;" below "use warnings;" in
Email/Valid.pm, turning bytewise interpretation of all regexes in the code.
