One limitation of most alphanumeric shellcode decoders, including those in * ALPHA2<http://skypher.com/wiki/index.php/Hacking/Shellcode/Alphanumeric/ALPHA2> * and the soon-to-be-released *ALPHA3<http://skypher.com/wiki/index.php/Hacking/Shellcode/Alphanumeric/ALPHA3> * is that they need to know where they are located in memory in order to decode themselves and run correctly. This makes using a *nopslide* hard in most circumstances, because you mostly only need a *nopslide* if you do not know exactly where your shellcode is in memory to begin with.
I've developed a way to get around this problem, which I've described in more detail here: http://skypher.com/index.php/2010/01/02/countslide-alphanumeric-getpc/ ALPHA3 has support for generating working alphanumeric shellcode with nopslides using this technique. I'm currently working on getting the rest of its code into releasable shape.
