As initially suspected, from the AV signature perspective, this
is not a critical issue until and unless something specific
shows up in the wild or is reported to a vendor. The NUL char
insertion concept is similar in theory to, for example, K2's
classic ADMmutate[1] polymorphic shellcode engine for NIDS
evasion, or simply adding NOPs to an executable. Alex and
Neel[2] discussed this class of AV vulns at core05 and Blackhat.
