Malicious web shells are detected by extracting the feature profiles of known web shells and creating a learning model that classifies malicious samples. This chapter proposes a novel feature profile scheme for characterizing malicious web shells based on the opcode sequences and static properties of PHP scripts. A real-world dataset is employed to compare the performance of the feature profile scheme against state-of-art schemes using various machine learning algorithms. The experimental results demonstrate that the new feature profile scheme significantly reduces the false positive rate. %G English %Z TC 11 %Z WG 11.9 %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03657237/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-03657237/file/503209_1_En_4_Chapter.pdf %L hal-03657237 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-03657237 %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-AICT %~ IFIP-TC %~ IFIP-WG %~ IFIP-TC11 %~ IFIP-DF %~ IFIP-WG11-9 %~ IFIP-AICT-589
