Reported here: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Talk:Community_Tech/Wikitext_editor_syntax_highlighting#Fail:_Search_and_Replace
I was not able to reproduce on the same OS and browser, but a user is reporting that:
I'm having a somewhat similar issue in that the search and replace doesn't actually replace anything if I choose "Replace all" with syntax highlighting on. Individual replace works fine with it on, and "Replace all" works fine with it off, though. I'm on Firefox (58.0.2) and OS X.

| TextSelection: Make chainable methods chainable | mediawiki/extensions/CodeMirror | master | +4 -0 |
Appears in Chrome 63 and Firefox 57 on Windows 7 x64. On all projects (tested also different Acc.)
The relevant code block, textSelection returns undefinied:
$textarea = $("#wpTextbox1").textSelection( 'setSelection', { start: 0, end: 10 } )But also separate search works only for the first hit (replace step by step works ironically).
