[nus-pe-bot]

If a negative sign is in front of the xml file, it allows the program to load in an expense with a negative amount. (In this case, the data was loaded in using merge-expense. The data loaded by an xml file should be validated to ensure the data is completely valid.

Team's Response

Greetings,

Thank you for your bug report. After careful evaluation of your bug report, the development team is accepting your bug report. However, we are of the opinion that the severity of this issue should be low for the following reasons:

• This issue only happens when the xml file is directly modified.

• In this case, there is still data integrity and the data only lacks validation.

Best Regards.
