초록

The rise in popularity of cloud services has brought about a heightened concern for security in the field of cloud computing. As a response, governments have implemented CSAP(Cloud Security Assurance Program) to ensure the security of these services. However, despite such measures, the emergence of various security vulnerabilities persists, resulting in incidents related to cloud security breaches. To address this, the utilization of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) has been proposed as a means to facilitate the sharing of vulnerability information across different domains. Nevertheless, the unique characteristics of cloud services present challenges in assigning CVE IDs to the diverse range of vulnerabilities within the cloud environment.
In this study, we analyzed how CVE can be effectively employed to enhance cloud security. The assignment of a CVE ID is contingent upon the fulfillment of three rules in the Counting Decision and five rules in the Inclusion Decision. Notably, the third rule in the Inclusion Decision, INC3, clashes with the nature of cloud services, resulting in obstacles in assigning CVE IDs to various cloud vulnerabilities. To tackle this issue, we suggest the appointment of designated individuals who would be responsible for overseeing specific areas of cloud services, thereby enabling the issuance of CVE IDs. This proposed approach aims to overcome the challenges associated with the unique characteristics of cloud services and ensure the seamless sharing of vulnerability information. Information sharing regarding vulnerabilities is crucial in the field of security, and by incorporating cloud vulnerabilities into the CVE system, this method can contribute to enhancing the security of cloud services.
