This is posted here every few months.

The thread subject is not as informative as it could be. The original post was about pasting control characters. While the problem is not new[0], I don't recall it being ever discussed on oss-security before.

OTOH, this is about terminal escape injection, an entirely different problem, and a frequent topic on oss-security.
