it looks like the hang-*.tiff and hang-*.wmf are not encrypted.

the CVE-* files in the same directory are all encrypted with some dummy
password, so that virus scanners don't complain about them.

vcl/qa/cppunit/graphicfilter/data/README

i've taken the liberty to encrypt these now on master with
18b0343010517daa1eaf52a17ef19564076e1f3a, so you should only get virus
warnings when the tests are actually running (because the files will be
written unencrypted to temporary files), which can be avoided with
--disable-cve-tests.
