Fuzzing server responses to malicious client devices

A method, comprising:

• receiving, by a security device, a request, from a client device and intended for a server device, to provide a resource,
• the resource being associated with information stored by the server device;
• determining, by the security device, that the request is associated with a malicious script,
• the malicious script executing on the client device and including a script that performs one or more tasks directed to the server device;
• creating, by the security device, a response to the request based on the request being associated with the malicious script,
• the response including information to cause the malicious script to experience an error,
• where creating the response includes at least one of:
• inserting a link to a page with a null byte in a network address associated with a server response,
• altering a coding scheme associated with the server response, or
• incorrectly identifying a markup language associated with the server response;
• and
• providing, by the security device, the response to the client device to cause the malicious script, executing on the client device, to experience the error.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• a plurality of instructions which, when executed by one or more processors associated with a security device, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive a request, from a client device and intended for a server device, to provide a resource,
• the resource being associated with information stored by the server device;
• identify the request as being associated with a malicious script,
• the malicious script executing on the client device and including a script that performs one or more tasks directed to the server device;
• create a response to the request based on the request being associated with the malicious script,
• the response including information to cause the malicious script to experience an error
• where the plurality of instructions that cause the one or more processors to create the response, cause the one or more processors to at least one of:
• insert a link to a page with a null byte in a network address associated with a server response,
• alter a coding scheme associated with the server response, or
• incorrectly identify a markup language associated with the server response;
• and
• provide the response to the client device to cause the malicious script, executing on the client device, to experience the error.
