Not as far as I know, but I have heard about people pasting the Wrong Thing into a root shell.

In a way it's a casting error. A type safety violation. You paste text into a privileged shell and coerce it to be sh, and when it goes wrong the sh input is rich in < and > characters.

Friends of mine have mentioned at least a) people accidentally pasting much more than the intended line into sh because they selected more than intended and b) sites that modify the cut buffer silently to add some "pasted from … blah … like us on facebook" or somesuch, I forget the details. The person who wrote the page intended one line to be castable to sh, another person who worked on the site added the script that transformed the cut/paste without realising that.
