There is a newer version: 8.6.0.37351

Integer literals starting with a zero are octal rather than decimal values. While using octal values is fully supported, most developers do not have experience with them. They may not recognize octal values as such, mistaking them instead for decimal values.
Noncompliant Code Example

int myNumber = 010;   // Noncompliant. myNumber will hold 8, not 10 - was this really expected?

Compliant Solution

int myNumber = 8;


See

 MISRA C:2012, 7.1 - Octal constants shall not be used
