In one example of the technology, a natural-language output is generated by performing a natural-language translation of code. A machine-learning model is used to generate a confidence score that indicates a confidence that the natural-language output is potentially malicious. Based at least in part on whether the confidence score exceeds a first threshold, whether the natural-language output is potentially malicious is determined. Responsive to determining that the natural-language output potentially malicious, the code is flagged as potentially malicious."
