Abstract
Disclosed herein are systems and methods for detecting malware in scripts. A method includes: monitoring, at a first computing device, an execution flow of at least one portion of a script; computing a fingerprint that represents the execution flow; determining whether the fingerprint is present in a local fingerprint database that includes a plurality of entries for known scripts; in response to determining that the fingerprint is not present in the local fingerprint database, transmitting the fingerprint to a central database server including a universal fingerprint database; in response to receiving an indication that the fingerprint is not present in the universal fingerprint database, scanning the at least one portion of the script for malware; and blocking the script in response to determining that the at least one portion of the script includes malware based on the scanning.
