can anyone recall any interesting vulnerabilities in Windows applications that were due to mishandling of character encoding and/or unexpected case sensitivity in file paths? ones with good write-ups strongly preferred.

looking specifically for Windows, specifically character encoding related bugs, and specifically bugs in apps rather than bugs in the OS's own file path handling (e.g. WorstFit)
