Abstract

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to detect an attack in an input file. An example apparatus includes a detection controller to identify a section of a number of bytes of data in a buffer including a first or second byte of data indicative of a value within a preconfigured range, the preconfigured range corresponding to a range of values indicative of memory addresses, update a merged list with a chunk of data that includes the section having the first or second byte of data indicative of the value within the preconfigured range, and a reoccurrence detector to concatenate the chunk of data in the merged list into a string to identify a number of occurrences the string matches remaining data in the buffer, and in response to a detection of the number of occurrences exceeding an occurrence threshold, determine that the data includes a malicious data stream.
