Windows lets you put a classid (hexadecimal string identifying the file type) in curly brackets and use that as a file extension. At least one virus has used this technique to hide its extension.I know the default extension regex does not allow open curly brackets ('{'). I assume this is a security feature.
What about filenames? I know they're legal in both
unix and windoze, but do they pose a security risk?
