Noun

omelette (plural omelettes)

1. A dish made with beaten eggs cooked in a frying pan without stirring, flipped over to cook on both sides, and sometimes filled or topped with cheese, chives or other foodstuffs.
2. (computing) A form of shellcode that searches the address space for multiple small blocks of data ("eggs") and recombines them into a larger block to be executed.
   • 2015, Herbert Bos, Fabian Monrose, Gregory Blanc, Research in Attacks, Intrusions, and Defenses: 18th International Symposium

     This approach would be altered for an optimal omelette based exploit. One would spray the heap with the omelette code solely, then load a single copy of the additional shellcode eggs into memory outside the target region for the spray.

Noun

1. (oncology, medicine) A dark-pigmented, usually malignant tumor arising from a melanocyte and occurring most commonly in the skin.

Usage notes

The term malignant melanoma is synonymous with melanoma in present-day medicine because the molecular biologic understanding and convened terminology of benign and malignant cutaneous neoplasms have been refined since the term melanoma entered use. While this makes malignant melanoma technically redundant, the term remains in frequent use alongside its now-synonymous counterpart. More details are offered at Melanoma § Terminology.
