TalkinSpanishat JSConf Colombia 2016 · 2016-10-07..10-08· [javascript]
slides:none on file

Covers concrete JavaScript pitfalls and demos: IEEE‑754 NaN behavior (NaN !== NaN), Array.prototype.sort defaulting to lexicographic order and needing a numeric comparator, the double-tilde (~~) truncation trick and the indexOf + ~ presence check. Also demonstrates code obfuscation techniques like JS alphanumeric/JSFuck using the Function constructor to produce alert(1) and a reconstructed jQuery repository, and cites a real security case where eBay accepted such obfuscated payloads.
