Full Disclosure: Re: On Polymorphic Evasion

[Ali Campbell <fdisclosure () alicampbell org uk>]

Does the fixed-length nature of RISC instructions make detecting a 
shellcode on a platform such as PPC via IDS easier ? Or does the larger 
availability of pseudo-NOP instructions on these platforms (owing 
chiefly to more combinations of registers being available) in fact make 
it harder ?
I wrote some shellcode for OS X once, basically as an exercise, and I 
caught myself wondering about this.
