Abstract

In a system for attributing one or more vulnerabilities in a software application to one or more developers, information identifying the source of a vulnerability is obtained from a vulnerability report. From a repository, developer-related information associated with the identified source is obtained. One or more developers are selected from the developer-related information according to one or more specified rules, and the defect is attributed to the selected developer(s). Attribution of the defect may indicate that the developer(s) contributed to introduction of the defect or to remedying the defect.
