VMCDL: Vulnerability Mining Based on Cascaded Deep Learning Under Source Control Flow
With the rapid development of the computer industry and computer software, the risk of software vulnerabilities being exploited has greatly increased. However, there are still many shortcomings in the existing mining techniques for leakage source research, such as high false alarm rate, coarse-grained detection, and dependence on expert experience. In this paper, we mainly use the c/c++ source code data of the SARD dataset, process the source code of CWE476, CWE469, CWE516 and CWE570 vulnerability types, test the Joern vulnerability scanning function of the cutting-edge tool, and propose a new cascading deep learning model VMCDL based on source code control flow to effectively detect vulnerabilities. First, this paper uses joern to locate and extract sensitive functions and statements to form a sensitive statement library of vulnerable code. Then, the CFG flow vulnerability code snippets are generated by bidirectional breadth-first traversal, and then vectorized by Doc2vec. Finally, the cascade deep learning model based on source code control flow is used for classification to obtain the classification results. In the experimental evaluation, we give the test results of Joern on specific vulnerabilities, and give the confusion matrix and label data of the binary classification results of the model algorithm on single vulnerability type source code, and compare and verify the five indicators of FPR, FNR, ACC, P and F1, respectively reaching 10.30 that it can effectively reduce the false alarm rate of static analysis.
