Unless the oatmeal has been cooked or has been damaged by water, the dry cereal is considered shelf stable - if properly stored - and does not go 'bad' from microbial growth. It can, however, picked up flavors during storage and can undergo chemical changes - rancidity and staling. You should be able to detect those by smell. Otherwise, you should be able to smell it while it is cooking. If it smells odd, it will taste odd.

Look on the bag, there will generally be a "use by" date on it. Many times the date will be on the crimping at the edge of the bag. If there are four numbers on it, the first number will be the year, the other three the number of the day of the year. This is called Julian date, and has various charts online to convert the numbers.

Does cookie dough go bad if it sits out all night?
Yes of courseA different answer:No, if the question refers to raw (unbaked) cookie dough that contains eggs.
