Which date? In reality dates are (mostly) defined as fixed points, but
computers just don't have such.
E.g. currently you can't use modsign based on X.509 certificates if the
date comes through USB, because modsign tries to load the certificate
before before the USB stack comes up, which ends up with invalid dates
(Not Before).
And changing the system date isn't that hard for an attacker if he is
already able to do other bad things.

Alexander
