Semantic model of attacks and vulnerabilities based on CAPEC and CWE dictionaries

Andrei Brazhuk    

Resumen

This paper discusses the problem of extracting and using knowledge of public directories of software attacks and vulnerabilities to build semantic threat models. The possible purpose of such models is using as a core of a knowledge management system in the software security field. The reason of using the semantic approach (ontologies, reasoning) is a huge number of different data sources in this field and difficulties to analyse them by hand. The proposed semantic model (OWL ontology) is based on the attack pattern (CAPEC) and weakness (CWE) concepts, and can ?answer? the questions (by the DL and SPARQL queries), related to grouping (classification) of security concepts according given criteria. The implementation includes free software module (Java, OWL API), able to obtain the OWL ontology from the CAPEC and CWE files in the XML format. To illustrate given ideas, the Protege ontology editor, Pellet reasoner, and SNAP SPARQL plugin are used.
