Unsafe string replacement occurs when a replacement call is used to remove a series of text longer than one character from a string, invoked only once, to sanitize it. Because string replacement (str_replace in PHP, =~ s/// in Perl, etc) functions only do a single replacement, it is necessary to loop over them until all unsafe characters or strings are removed if you are replacing more than a single character. This also applies to replacements powered by regular expressions.

Alphanumeric Shellcode

Alphanumeric shellcode is similar to ascii shellcode in that it is used to bypass character filters and evade intrusion-detection during buffer overflow exploitation. This article documents alphanumeric code on multiple architectures, but primarily the 64 bit x86 architecture.
