# Unicode Fix

Prevents path traversal via non-printable Unicode (experimental). Internal to root hiding.

## Source

- **Internal to root hiding**

## Purpose

Certain path traversal attacks and detection-evasion techniques can use non-printable Unicode codepoints. The Unicode Fix patches the kernel to mitigate these vectors.

It is documented as internal to root hiding (SUSFS/KernelSU) — not a standalone top-level feature.

## Status

**Experimental** — use at your own risk.

## Build Integration

The Unicode Fix is applied as a patch during the build workflow when `use_unicode` is enabled. It is enabled by default.
