How can I say "love' without character or digits in JavaScript?


Inspired by Ryan Barnett's PPT of BlackHat DC 2011, especially the code below:




($=[$=[]][(__=!$+$)[_=-~-~-~$]+({}+$)[_/_]+ ($$=($_=!''+$)[_/_]+$_[+$])])()[__[_/_]+__ [_+~$]+$_[_]+$$](_/_)



Yesterday was special day for lovers, so I tried to write something similar. Which basically alert "I love you" without any character or digits.



e.g. "I" can be obtained from ((_=-~[])/--_+[])[_]



we have "[object Object]", "true", "false", "NaN", "Infinity" to use, I cannot figure out a way to get "v" this way.



I tried to think of String.fromCharCode() , (Ryan already get window reference for us, so in theory, we can window["String"]["fromCharCode"](118) ) however I miss "S" and "C" character here. Also think about window["eval"](...) , again, I have no "v".



Just try to explain a little bit, [] is empty, when apply +/-/~ operate to it, it converts to number 0 , and ~[] gives 1 , 1/0 gives Infinitey . Then it comes to 1/0 + [] , they will both converted to string for the add, which gives "Infinity" , and "Infinity"[_] == "Infinity"[0] == "I" ...



The original code of Ryan is more complex, it utilized a lot more, includes scope, special return value, etc. (this is another story)



This might not seem to be a great idea to do things, but just very interesting.



With help with meze, I was able to produce this for Firefox:




($=($=[$=[]][(__=!$+$)[_=-~-~-~$]+(_$={}+$)[_/_]+ ($$=($_=!''+$)[_/_]+$_[+$])])())[__[_/_]+__ [_+~$]+$_[_]+$$]((_$_=(__$=-~[])/--__$+[])[__$]+_$[_+++_]+__[__$=-~-~[]]+_$[-~[]]+($[_$[$__=_+_]+_$[++$__]+_$[++$__]+_$[++$__]+_$[++$__]+_$[++$__]]+[])[
$__+$__+--_]+__[++_]+_$[$__=_+--_]+_$_[_+++_]+_$[_/_]+$_[__$]);



it basically is alert("I love you") , many thanks! If only I get the help yesterday, which I have not post this yet :(



JavaScript is beautiful, some varibles for your reference:




$_ = "true"
__ = "false"
_$ = "[object Object]"
$$ = "rt"
_$_ = "Infinity"
_ = 3 = 4 = 3 = 4 = 3
$ = window
$__ = 8 = 13
__$ = 0 = 2



Some variables are reused many times, will not try to leave details, it is not a fun job :) I am happy, we are finally here! This actually has lots of potential, as we now have "v", and lots of digits, we will in theory possible to eval() lots of... things easier. I will show this to my wife, hope she enjoys the _$-+()...



example as your reference: http://jsfiddle.net/Y4wqw/



btw, we can shorten the code a bit, as we already have reference to sort() , which can be used instead of window["Object"] to get the "native code" => "v", here it is:




($=($_$=($=[$=[]][(__=!$+$)[_=-~-~-~$]+(_$={}+$)[_/_]+ ($$=($_=!''+$)[_/_]+$_[+$])]))())[__[_/_]+__ [_+~$]+$_[_]+$$]((_$_=(__$=-~[])/--__$+[])[__$]+_$[_+++_]+__[__$=-~-~[]]+_$[-~[]]+($_$+[])[(__$<<__$<<__$)-_+~[]]+$_[--_]+_$[$__=_+++_]+_$_[_+--_]+_$[_/_]+$_[__$]);



Again, it works only in Firefox, might not try to migrate to other browser. And I love Firefox.

  1. Well at least in Firefox, JavaScript native objects return function Object() { [native code] }, which has 'v'. So if we have window and Object, then i suppose we could do:

    (window["Object"]+0)[29];

  2. Same message, but different spelling.

    // "I <3 u"
    _= +~[]; // 1
    __= -[]; // 0
    ___= +(-~[] -~[] -~[]); // 3
    $=''
    +(''+(_/__))[__] // i
    +' ' // space
    +'<'+___ // <3
    +' ' // space
    +(''+(_<__))[+(-~[] -~[])]; // u
    alert($);

  3. try this code:

    $=(Å='',[Ç=!(µ=!Å+Å)+{}][Ç[È=++Å-~Å]+Ç[È+È]+µ[Å]+µ[Å-Å]])();
    _=$[Ç[È+È+Ã…]+µ[Ã…-Ã…]+Ç[È+È]+Ç[Ã…]]("¾");
    console.info( _[+[]] ); // concole is used just to show result ;)


    if you run it, on the console you will get "v" :), more info about it can be found there

    there is a way to avoid "¾", but result will be "V" (actually nothing bad for such a word like love :):

    $=(Å='',[Ç=!(µ=!Å+Å)+{}][Ç[È=++Å-~Å]+Ç[È+È]+µ[Å]+µ[Å-Å]])(); // we get window object
    _=$[Ç[È+È+Å]+µ[Å-Å]+Ç[È+È]+Ç[Å]]( $ ); // we use btoa function with argument "[object Window]",
    // and it returns "W29iamVjdCBXaW5kb3dd" - as you see there is V
    $$=-~!''; // 2
    $$$=-~$$; // 3
    console.info( _[$$*$$$] ); // "V";


    btoa creates encoded data from the given string, using base-64 encoding. Actually playing with that function and changing arguments you can get different characters :)

  4. alert("\u2665"); // results in ♥

Wildcards in a hosts file

I want to setup my local development machine so that any requests for *.local are redirected to localhost . The idea is that as I develop multiple sites, I can just add vhosts to Apache called site1.local , site2.local etc, and have them all resolve to localhost , while Apache serves a different site accordingly.
