Cryptography Classes in Bugs Framework (BF): Encryption (ENC), Verification (VRF), and Key Management (KMN)
Accurate, precise, and unambiguous definitions of software weaknesses (bugs) and clear descriptions of software vulnerabilities are vital for building the foundations of cybersecurity. The Bugs Framework (BF) comprises rigorous definitions and (static) attributes of bug classes, along with their related dynamic properties, such as proximate, secondary and tertiary causes, consequences, and sites. This paper presents an overview of previously developed BF classes and the new cryptography classes: encryption (ENC), verification (VRF), and key management (KMN). We analyze corresponding vulnerabilities and provide their clear descriptions by applying the BF taxonomy. Finally, we discuss the lessons learned and share our plans for developing next BF classes.
