Key Points

  • The research aims to construct a unified dataset and evaluate various models for detecting vulnerabilities in open-source software.
  • Combined vulnerability data from the National Vulnerability Database and GitHub artifacts.
  • Developed a data processing pipeline for constructing and filtering datasets.
  • Conducted model experiments using several vulnerability detection models (e.g., MemVul, PatchRNN).
  • Aggregated results at the CVE level for practical application.
  • Constructed a comprehensive CVE dataset spanning from 1999 to July 2024.
  • Demonstrated effective identification of vulnerabilities at the sample level.
  • Results indicate varied efficacy across different vulnerability detection models.

Abstract

OSS Vulnerability Dataset and Model Evaluation Framework This archive contains both datasets and experimental code used in a study on open-source software vulnerability detection. It integrates vulnerability information from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) with software development artifacts extracted from GitHub and provides a unified framework for constructing datasets and evaluating multiple vulnerability detection models. The archive provides the data processing pipeline, curated datasets, and experimental scripts used in the study. Vulnerability detection is performed at the sample level with results aggregated at the CVE level to reflect practical vulnerability identification scenarios. Contents CVE Data Collection Model Data Collection Model Experiments CVEdata. xlsx CVE Data Collection This component includes scripts used to construct a unified CVE dataset. CVE records from 1999 to July 2024 were collected from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and consolidated into the file CVEdata. xlsx. References to GitHub artifacts, including commits, pull requests, and issues, were extracted from CVE entries and filtered to retain valid artifacts. Artifact creation timestamps and temporal metrics were computed for time-aware analysis. Model Data Collection This component provides scripts for constructing model-specific inputs. Datasets were generated at the artifact levels and include both vulnerable and non-vulnerable samples. Due to dataset size, intermediate CSV outputs were merged during preprocessing, and temporal ordering was preserved by splitting the data into RQ2 and RQ3 subsets, presented in experimental datasets. Model Experiments This component contains experimental code, configurations, and datasets used to evaluate the following vulnerability detection models: MemVul VulCurator PatchRNN LineVul DeepTraVul Experiments are conducted independently for each model using a consistent evaluation protocol. All models operate at the sample level, and a CVE is considered vulnerable if at least one associated sample is predicted as vulnerable. Notes All datasets and experimental scripts required to reproduce the reported results are included in this archive. The CVE dataset is provided in the file CVEdata. xlsx. This archive is intended to support reproducible research on software vulnerability detection.
