Abstract
Web sites are crawled using multiple browser profiles to avoid malicious cloaking. Based on web page content returned from HTTP requests using the multiple browser profiles, web sites returning substantively different content to HTTP requests for different browser profiles are identified. Web sites are further filtered by common cloaking behavior, and redirect scripts are extracted from web page content that performed cloaking. Signatures comprising tokenized versions of the redirect scripts are generated and compared to a database of known cloaking signatures. URLs corresponding to signatures having approximate matches with signatures in the database are flagged for recrawling. Recrawled URLs are verified for malicious cloaking again using HTTP requests from multiple browser profiles.
