Summary : Replace Homoglyphs with Their Ascii Lookalike Equivalents
|
Description :
Unicode has various homoglyphs - characters which look the same or mostly the the same, but are different characters.
If you\'re trying to filter input in some way, but support Unicode text, then such homoglyphs can be used to get past your filters. For instance, there are *eleven* other characters that look like a colon.
So, if someone wants to be a ⅾⅰⅽk to bypass your filters, they can replace some characters with look-alike (or at least look-similar) characters which your profanity / spam filters won\'t recognise. (That example there was \'\\x{217E}\\x{2170}\\x{217D}k\' - i.e. the characters SMALL ROMAN NUMERAL FIVE HUNDRED, SMALL ROMAN NUMERAL ONE, SMALL ROMAN NUMERAL ONE HUNDRED, and a \"k\".)
