Recurring patterns

The bug types that recur here, drawn from past fixes, not open vulnerabilities.

Denial of Service: Out-of-bounds date values and potential 64-bit integer overflows during parsing can lead to uncaught exceptions or crashes in the date-to-integer conversion logic. Ensure strict limit validation is consistently applied to all input parameters representing years or timestamps before processing.
