I have no experience with high level math or encryption so saying this idea is even half-baked would be an overstatement. For a few years I have wondered if the fact that Windows kernel defaults to UTF16 encoding and if the fact that majority of text would be half 00 (e.g. capital A = 00 41) would allow for some similar attack vectors?
