Techniques for analyzing code are described. In some instances, a code analysis service is to perform a series of comparisons, one or more per path segment of an index structure of non-defective code samples, using a token derived from a defective code segment of the stored code, to determine one or more paths in the index, wherein each path is to point to code that is similar to the defective code segment; and provide, in response to the series of comparisons, at least one of: a location of the code determined to be similar to the defective code segment and the code determined to be similar.
