Bad resulting dates when typing incorrect date formats

[emb]

Libraries

1. Angular: 1.2.28
2. Bootstrap: 0.12.0

Test Case

1. Set datepicker format dd/MM/yyyy
2. Type a date with a single digit month (notice bad-formatted date). Example: 04/1/2015

Expected Results

Invalid date. Or at least a date corresponding to the 4th of January 2015.

Observed Results

The date we find in the model is 1st of April 2015. This is obviously an incorrect date.

I noticed in Firefox a date like 27/29/1956 is valid and converted to March 29th 1956.

The offending line in the code is:

var date = dateParser.parse(viewValue, dateFormat) || new Date(viewValue);

So if the date doesn't match the given format, bootstrap tests whether the value happens to produce a valid js date, which of course it shouldn't try to do at all.

suspect that this is now fixed on master if you'd like to give the bleeding edge a try

Here's a plunk with the latest version from master demonstrating the problem.
