So a file name can contain a control character in either bash or tcsh.

Do you think that this could be a situation where a filename with a ^M or other character could lead to arbitrary code execution or something on that order and be a potential vulnerability? Or is the bash/tcsh bug simply a benign one that would only cause a script/command with such a character in the filename to fail to execute when called?
