Alphanumeric Opcode Compatibility
Intercompatible opcodes are important to note due to the fact that many opcodes overlap and thus, writing shellcode that will run on both 32 bit and 64 bit x86 platforms becomes possible.
Alphanumeric Intercompatible x86 Opcodes
This chart was derived by cross referencing available 64 bit instructions with available 32 bit instructions.

Because not all opcodes are intercompatible, yet comparisons and conditional jumps are interompatible, it is possible to determine the architecture of an x86 processor using exclusively alphanumeric opcodes. The opcodes which are specifically not compatible are limited to the 64 bit special prefixes 0x40-0x4f, which allow for manipulation of 64 bit registers and 8 additional 64 bit general purpose registers, %r8-%r15. By making use of these additional registers (which 32 bit processors do not have), one can perform an operation that will set a value on a different register in the two processors. Following this, a conditional statement can be made against one of the two registers to determine if the value was set. Using the pop instruction is the most effective way to set the value of a register due to instructional limitations. Using an alternative register to %rsp or %esp as the stack pointer enables the use of an effective conditional statement to determine if the value of a register is equal to the most recent thing pushed or popped from the stack.
15 Byte Architecture Detection Shellcode
This bytecode does not have a conditional jump. The reader may add this for customization based on the size and architecture of the payload that occurs after this snippet. |
This simple alphanumeric bytecode is 15 bytes long, ending in a comparison which returns equal on a 32 bit system and not equal on a 64 bit system. The conditional jump may be best reserved for the t and u instructions, jump if equal and jump if not equal, respectively.

On a 64-bit system, this will not cause a segfault because (%rdx) points to somewhere inside the stack. Also notice that while this was assembled as a Linux-based ELF executable, the Operating System should not matter, as this stays within the confines of legal instructions for any x86 CPU that should not cause an access violation.
Alphanumeric x86_64 Register Value and Data Manipulation
Given the limited set of instructions for alphanumeric shellcode.... write some more stuff once done explaining the various aspects below in a general short form manner.
Push: Alphanumeric x86_64 Registers
Alphanumeric data can be pushed in one-byte, two-byte, and four-byte quantities at once.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
pushw [word] | \x66\x68\x##\x## | fh?? |
pushq [byte] | \x6a\x## | j? |
pushq [dword] | \x68\x##\x##\x##\x## | h???? |
Pushing the 64 bit registers RAX-RDI is done using a single upper case P-W (\x50-\x57) dependent on which register you're pushing. Prefixing with "A" (for general registers R8-R15) or "f" for 16 bit registers (AX-DI) gives access to push 32 registers using alphanumeric shellcode.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
push %rax | \x50 | P |
push %rcx | \x51 | Q |
push %rdx | \x52 | R |
push %rbx | \x53 | S |
push %rsp | \x54 | T |
push %rbp | \x55 | U |
push %rsi | \x56 | V |
push %rdi | \x57 | W |
For the general registers R8-R15 "A" is prefixed to the corresponding RAX-RDI register push.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
push %r8 | \x41\x50 | AP |
push %r9 | \x41\x51 | AQ |
push %r10 | \x41\x52 | AR |
push %r11 | \x41\x53 | AS |
push %r12 | \x41\x54 | AT |
push %r13 | \x41\x55 | AU |
push %r14 | \x41\x56 | AV |
push %r15 | \x41\x57 | AW |
For the 16 bit registers AX-DI "f" is prefixed to the corresponding RAX-RDI register push.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
push %ax | \x66\x50 | fP |
push %cx | \x66\x51 | fQ |
push %dx | \x66\x52 | fR |
push %bx | \x66\x53 | fS |
push %sp | \x66\x54 | fT |
push %bp | \x66\x55 | fU |
push %si | \x66\x56 | fV |
push %di | \x66\x57 | fW |
For the 16 bit general registers R8B-R15b "f" is prefixed to the corresponding R8-R15 register push.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
push %r8b | \x66\x41\x50 | fAP |
push %r9b | \x66\x41\x51 | fAQ |
push %r10b | \x66\x41\x52 | fAR |
push %r11b | \x66\x41\x53 | fAS |
push %r12b | \x66\x41\x54 | fAT |
push %r13b | \x66\x41\x55 | fAU |
push %r14b | \x66\x41\x56 | fAV |
push %15b | \x66\x41\x57 | fAW |
Pop: Alphanumeric X86_64 Registers
Pop is more limited in its range of usable registers due to the limitations of alphanumeric shellcode. This is limited to RAX, RCX, and RAX. As with push, the extended register shellcode is prefixed to access 16 bit and general registers. This gives the ability to pop a total of 12 (6 full size and 6 16 bit) registers we can pop.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
pop %rax | \x58 | X |
pop %rcx | \x59 | Y |
pop %rax | \x5a | Z |
For general registers, RAX-RCX are prefixed with "A" for the corresponding R8-R10 pop.
Assembly | Hexadecimal | Alphanumeric ASCII |
---|---|---|
pop %r8 | \x41\x58 | AX |
pop %r9 | \x41\x59 | AY |
pop %r10 | \x41\x5a | AZ |
# 16 bit registers (using 0x66 or 'f' # [sometimes fA] prefix): # %cx, %dx, %ax, %r8w, %r9w, %r10w # # So, using push and pop we can set the values of # 6 fullsize CPU registers: # %rax, %rcx, %rdx, %r8, %r9, %r8 # # Or get any values of 16 fullsize CPU registers # to the top of the stack: # %r8-%r15, %rax-%rdi #
Prefixes
# Lets look quickly. We've got 5 main registers # and 5 special 64 bit registers we can push but # not pop: # %rbx, %rsp, %rbp, %rsi, %rdi # # How can we write to those (or read their # sub-registers) using alphanumeric bytecode # instructions and operands only? We can also # presumably use any of the 6 full control # registers by our emulating for mov with push # and pop. Using only the registers we can # already access, we will attempt to get # instructions for our use to set values. # # We've identified our special register prefix, # 0x41, 'A'. # We've identified our word operand override, # 0x66, 'f'. # # Lets identify all the alphanumeric overrides and prefixes. # Notice these overrides are very similar to those for 32 # bit platforms. # # 0x36, '6', %ss segment override. Very handy. # 0x64, 'd', %fs segment override # 0x65, 'e', %gs segment override # # 0x66, 'f', 16 bit operand size # 0x67, 'g', 16 bit address size # # 0x41, 'A', 64 bit special register use (%r##) # 0x48, 'H', 64 bit register size override # # 0x40-4a, special 64 bit overrides #
Operands
# Now is probably a good time to mention that the # opcodes used for popping a register can also be # used as 'register operands' for more advanced # instructions. For example, take this xor # instruction: # xor $0x[byte](%rax),%ebx # "\x33\x58\x##" "3X?" # # The %rax register can be changed to %rcx or %rdx # using the 0x59 (Y) and 0x5a (Z) opcodes in place # of the 0x58 (X) opcode: # xor $0x[byte](%rax),%ebx # "\x33\x59\x##" "3Y?" # # Whenever there's a controllable register, we'll # use the notation {reg} so we'll recognize it as # an option. In our bytecodes and string examples, # we will use a '?' in the bytecode itself and a # '*' to denote the register operand, for example: # xor $0x[byte]({reg}),%ebx # "\x33\x??\x##" "3*?" # # So start memorizing the opcodes for rax,rcx, and # rdx, and get it in your head that they'll be used # frequently. When we run into multiple operands, # we'll use their operand number in the notation # for readability purposes. #
Other Primitive Emulations
# -Xor # -Imul # -Movslq # # Identifying the ways to set the rest of our # registers, while investigating %rbx, was not # entirely fruitful. We do not get full control # over the %rbx register, however, we get write # access to sub-registers: # %ebx, %bx, %bh, %bl # We can access these by using xor, imul, and # movslq instructions: # -%ebx: # xor $0x[byte]({reg}),%ebx # "\x33\x??\x##" "3*?" # # imul $0x[dword1],0x[byte2]({reg}),%ebx # "\x69\x??\x#2\x#1\x#1\x#1\x#1" "i*21111" # # imul $0x[byte1],0x[byte2]({reg}), %ebx # "\x6b\x??\x#2\x#1" "k*21" # # movslq 0x[byte1]({reg}), %ebx # "\x63\x??\x## "c*?" # # Note: if you want to access the %ss segment, put # the prefix at the beginning of the bytecode of # instructions (e.g. "63*?" in stead of "3*?"). If # you'd like to use the special 64 bit registers, # put 0x41 or "A" at the beginning of the bytecode. # if you need to use both, you must always use the # %ss segment register prefix first, e.g. '6A3*?'. # # Using one of our 64 bit force operators, we can # use any of those instructions on %ebx with an # override to treat it as %rbx (in this case, 0x48). # # imul $0x[byte1],0x[byte2]({reg}),%rbx # "\x48\x6b\x??\x#2\x#1" "Hk*21" # # So all we really have to set the value of %rbx # directly is imul, xor, and movslq. It's similar # for our other registers that we can't directly # access yet, save for a couple. #
xor
# Left over, we have %rsp, %rbp, %rdi, and %rsi. # Lets take a closer look at xor. Starting at # 0x30 and ending at 0x35 we have some pretty # valuable xor commands: # # 0x34: xor $0x##, %al # 0x35: xor $0x########, %eax # 0x48 0x35 : xor $0x########, %rax # # 0x30 is a multi-byte xor instruction. Requiring # at least two operands (even if register denote): # # 0x30 - xor %{16bit}, (%{64bit}) # xor %{16bit}, (%{64bit},%{64bit},1) # xor %{16bit}, (%{64bit},%{64bit},2) # # xor %{16bit}, 0x[byte](%{64bit}) # xor %{16bit}, 0x[byte](,%{64bit},1) # xor %{16bit}, 0x[byte](,%{64bit},2) # # xor %{16bit}, 0x[dword](%{64bit}) # xor %{16bit}, 0x[dword](,%{64bit},1) # xor %{16bit}, 0x[dword](,%{64bit},2) # # 0x31 - xor %{32bit}, (%{64bit}) # 0x31 is just as flexible as 0x30. Didn't document # all permutations here due to brevity. # # 0x32 - xor (%{64bit}), %{16bit} # 0x32 is just as flexible, although the offsets will # change source side rather than destination side. # # 0x33 - xor (%{64bit}), %{32bit} # 0x33 is the opposite of 0x31. Just as flexible. #
Difficult Registers
# Lets combine our knowledge of xor with our knowledge # of the stack. When we push any data, our data is # accessible at %ss:(%rsp). Knowing this, we can use # another register in our available space (e.g. %rcx) # to set values on some of our more difficult registers: # %rbx, %rsp, %rbp, %rsi, %rdi # # First, we'll use push and pop to simulate 'mov': # # \x54 push %rsp # \x59 pop %rcx # \x5a pop %rax (This just sets the pointer back) # Two xor parameters allow us to set the index registers, # %rsi and %rdi. For now, we'll just zero them out: # # \x56 push %rsi # \x36\x48\x33\x31 xor %ss:(%rcx), %rsi # \x41\x58 pop %r8 # # \x57 push %rdi # \x36\x48\x33\x39 xor %ss:(%rcx), %rdi # pop %r8 # -------- # # Now we've zeroed out %rsi and %rdi. %r14 and %r15 # special registers can also be pushed and zeroed out in # this fashion. Now we have "full control" over: # %rax, %rcx, %rdx, %rsi, %rdi, %r8, %r9, %r10, %r14, # and %r15. We still need to gain full control over: # %rsp, %rbp, %rbx, %r11, %r12, and %r13 # # Similar to push, we're going to require some sort of # controllable data before the setting of a register. # Where pop is concerned, we might require something to # be pushed to the stack first, in this case, we just # require a zero register. Due to the way that xor # works, once we have a zero register at all, in this # case we will use %rax as our zero register, we can # use it to get %rbx, %rsp, and %rbp to zero if needed: # # # %rbx: # xor %ss:0x30(%rcx), %rax # store that value in rax # xor %rax, %ss:0x30(%rcx) # Null that area of stack # imul $0x30,%ss:0x30(%rax),%rbx # 0x30 * 0 = 0 # imul $0x30,%ss:0x30(%rax),%rbp # 0x30 * 0 = 0 # # Once the stack space, as well as the destination is set # to zero, we can effectively mov %rax, %rbp: # 36 48 31 41 30 xor %rax,%ss:0x30(%rcx) # 36 48 33 69 30 xor %ss:0x30(%rcx),%rbp # # Our closest thing to incrementing and decrementing is # our ability to use the ins and outs instructions to # add or subtract 1,2, or 4 against the %rdi register. # This still leaves us with no significant add or sub, # we can use imul with 16 and 8 bit registers to find # division though. We also have a magic mov; if %rsi is # not in use: # # movsql %ss:0x30(%rcx), %rsi # xor %rsi, %ss:0x30(%rsi) # # This can come in quite handy when chunking large # pieces of data to 0.
Example: Zeroing Out X86_64 CPU Registers
First %rsp is pushed to the top of the stack and the pointer address is popped into in %rcx, the third pop is to ensure that the pointer address matches what is now in %rcx.
<syntaxhighlight lang="asm">
push %rsp 2 pop %rcx 1 pop %r8 2
</syntaxhighlight>
The following push overwrites %ss:(%rcx) with the contents of %rsi, the xor zeros out %rsi by xoring itself, and %rsp is then set back to %rcx using pop.
<syntaxhighlight lang="asm">
push %rsi xor %ss:(%rcx), %rsi pop %r8
</syntaxhighlight>
Again using the same form, %ss:(%rcx) is overwritten, %rdi is zeroed out using xor, and %rsp is reset to %rcx.
<syntaxhighlight lang="asm">
push %rdi xor %ss:(%rcx), %rdi pop %r8
</syntaxhighlight>
say some stuff, explain what's going on etc.
