  2. Unreachable code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unreachable_code

    In computer programming, unreachable code is part of the source code of a program which can never be executed because there exists no control flow path to the code from the rest of the program. [ 1 ] Unreachable code is sometimes also called dead code , [ 2 ] [ 3 ] although dead code may also refer to code that is executed but has no effect on ...

  3. Callback (computer programming) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Callback_(computer...

    The following REBOL/Red code demonstrates callback use. As alert requires a string, form produces a string from the result of calculate; The get-word! values (i.e., :calc-product and :calc-sum) trigger the interpreter to return the code of the function rather than evaluate with the function. The datatype! references in a block!

    In computer programming, DLL injection is a technique used for running code within the address space of another process by forcing it to load a dynamic-link library. [1] DLL injection is often used by external programs to influence the behavior of another program in a way its authors did not anticipate or intend.

  6. Exception handling - Wikipedia

    Social pressure is a major influence on the scope of exceptions and use of exception-handling mechanisms, i.e. "examples of use, typically found in core libraries, and code examples in technical books, magazine articles, and online discussion forums, and in an organization’s code standards". [10]

  7. Shellcode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shellcode

    In hacking, a shellcode is a small piece of code used as the payload in the exploitation of a software vulnerability.It is called "shellcode" because it typically starts a command shell from which the attacker can control the compromised machine, but any piece of code that performs a similar task can be called shellcode.

  8. Arbitrary code execution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arbitrary_code_execution

    On its own, an arbitrary code execution exploit will give the attacker the same privileges as the target process that is vulnerable. [11] For example, if exploiting a flaw in a web browser, an attacker could act as the user, performing actions such as modifying personal computer files or accessing banking information, but would not be able to perform system-level actions (unless the user in ...
