Abstract
A security vulnerability propagation detection apparatus according to an embodiment may perform the operations of: obtaining version information of target software and open-source software used in the target software; classifying functions included in the version of open-source software into a first function used identically in the target software, a second function modified and used, and a third function not used; determining whether the second function has been patched, based on a first similarity between the second function and an original function of the version and a second similarity between the second function and a patch function of the version; and detecting a vulnerability propagated to the target software from vulnerabilities inherent in the version of open-source software, based on the classification of the first function, the second function, and the third function, and the patch status of the second function.
