Enhanced Classification of Embedded System Vulnerabilities Using Ensemble Embedding and BiLSTM Networks
摘要
Critical infrastructure increasingly relies on embedded systems, making them particularly vulnerable to cyber attacks due to their complexity and interconnectivity. Unlike general-purpose systems, embedded systems need specialized security solutions tailored to their unique vulnerabilities. Accurate classification of embedded system vulnerabilities is essential for targeted analysis and mitigation. Traditional methods using pre-trained embeddings like Word2Vec, GloVe, and FastText often struggle with Out-of-Vocabulary (OOV) words, reducing their effectiveness. We address this with a novel ensemble embedding technique that combines multiple pre-trained embeddings, enhancing the classification of embedded system vulnerabilities. Our BiLSTM-based model, tested on datasets such as NVD and CNNVD, achieved 82.61% accuracy on unseen data, outperforming traditional embeddings.
