๐Ÿšจ Severity: CRITICAL
๐Ÿ’ก Vulnerability: Weak regex validation (^[0-9]+$) allowed arbitrary long numeric inputs via readline(), which when cast to integers using as.integer() overflow and evaluate to NA. This causes the application to crash or behave unpredictably when the NA is evaluated in a boolean context (if).
๐ŸŽฏ Impact: Potential Denial of Service (DoS) and application instability when malicious or overly large user inputs are provided to interactive prompts.
๐Ÿ”ง Fix: Changed the weak regex to a strictly bounded exact-match regex (^[12]$) that exactly aligns with the prompt options, completely preventing any integer overflows or unexpected coercions.
โœ… Verification: Verified by unit tests to ensure safe handling of invalid inputs up to the retry limit.

โ€ฆdline validation

Fixed a critical vulnerability where weak regex validation (`^[0-9]+$`) allowed arbitrarily large numeric inputs via `readline`. Large inputs overflow native integer coercion (`as.integer`), resulting in `NA` values and causing process crashes or unhandled exceptions when evaluated in boolean conditions (`if`). The regex was restricted to strictly bound the inputs to exactly what the application expects (`^[12]$`), preventing the Denial of Service vulnerability. Tests were added to ensure 100% test coverage.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ๐ŸŸก Moderate ยท up to 1c383

The PR adds tests that rely on a testthat API introduced in version 3.2.0 while the package still declares support for version 3.0.0, so supported environments may fail their test suite; merge should wait for dependency alignment or restoration of the compatible mocking approach.
