RE: SARIF & CWE

This is great! The team has generated preliminary 4.3 and 4.4 versions of the CWE standard below, which could be useful as a starting specification. The team has also produced candidate standards for OWASP 4.02, NIST SP800-53 (v4 and v5)
 and NIST SP800-63B.

Figuring out a long-term contribution/hosting story for SARIF taxonomies would be a great agenda item for the TC.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] [sarif] SARIF & CWE

 

I had a CWE board meeting yesterday where the topic of the CWE taxonomy as expressed in SARIF was discussed.

 

Alex Hoole (of Microfocus) supported the idea of CWE taking ownership of the official version.

 

It was suggested that Mitre automatically generate the SARIF directly from their internal database, so that it would be available synchronously as new versions come out. Alec Summers (the Mitre guy who now runs this) promised to talk to
 his team to understand the feasibility and effort of doing this, and report back.

 

I also put out a call for interested parties to join the SARIF group. No bites yet.

 

Finally, note that there is a new version of CWE expected in mid July.
