Description

The keyboard doesn't respond, no matter what you type, even ctrl+c doesn't respond, so you have to close the tab.

Here is the file with the binary data:

Research direction

Reproduce the lock-up in WindTerm using the attached out.log file and test whether binary data causes keyboard input or Ctrl+C interrupts to stop responding. Trace the terminal data and interrupt-handling entry points to identify the failure boundary. Done means binary input no longer jams interrupts and the terminal remains responsive.
