While that's an interesting vector for attack, is it realistically an issue? Terminals are run as root all the time. I would guess any mainstream ones are well reviewed to not have such exploits work. Are you aware of any actual attack

One reason I suspect is that it's a well defined product. The "spec" is quite well specified at this point. When changes are made existing tests just need to catch regressions, not be changed extensively due to changed meanin
