    CVE Knowledge Graph & Security Intelligence System with Enhanced RAG
  </p>
</p>

This project combines a comprehensive knowledge graph for structured vulnerability data and relationships with an enhanced Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system for semantic search. We automate the process of curation, processing and correlation of CVE, CPE, CWE, CAPEC, MITRE ATT&CK, ExploitDB, CISA and other threat intelligence data.

## Integration

- `CVE-KGRAG` is used as the threat-intelligence backend for simulation projects such as `APTArena`/`CyGATE`.
- Typical outputs consumed by simulation pipelines include exploitability signals, tactic mappings, and vulnerability relationship context.

## Current Statistics (Latest)

### **Knowledge Graph Coverage (1999-2025)**
- **190,310 CVEs** with rich metadata (CVSS, affected products, CWE, CAPEC, MITRE mappings)
- **124,290 products** from **19,692 vendors**
- **458 CWEs**, **428 CAPECs**, **169 MITRE techniques**, **37 MITRE tactics**
- **2.4M+ relationships** between entities
- **80% have CVSS v3** scores (152,676 CVEs)
- **1,060 CVEs** in Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) list

### **NetworkX Graph Statistics**
- **335,178 nodes** (CVEs, Products, Vendors, CWEs, CAPECs)
- **1,126,306 edges** (relationships between entities)
- **246 vulnerability clusters** based on CWE and product relationships
- **Graph density**: 0.000010 (sparse, efficient graph structure)


# Quick Start

## **Prerequisites**
```bash
# Install Python dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

# Optional: if you have NVIDIA GPU and want CUDA-specific PyTorch wheels,
# install torch/torchvision/torchaudio separately from the official PyTorch index.

# Install Ollama from https://ollama.ai
# Then pull required models:
ollama pull llama3.1:8b
ollama pull llama3.1:70b  # Optional: for higher quality responses
```

## **Complete Setup Workflow**

### **Step 1: Download CVE Data (1999-2025)**
```bash
# Download all CVE data from NVD
python scripts/download_all_cves.py
```

### **Step 2: Process and Build Knowledge Graph**
```bash
# Collect and process threat intelligence data
python src/collectors/main_collector.py

# Process all CVE data with enrichment
python src/processors/process_all_cves.py

# Parse CPEs and extract products/vendors
python src/constructors/run_cpe_extraction.py

# Build the knowledge graph (JSON-based, no Neo4j required)
python src/constructors/kg_builder_without_neo4j.py
```

### **Step 3: Start Services & Load Knowledge Graph into Neo4j**
```bash
# Start Neo4j and Qdrant (Docker required)
docker compose up -d

# Bulk-load all KG JSON files into Neo4j (~190K CVEs, 2.4M relationships)
python -m src.constructors.neo4j_graph_service --bulk-load

# Verify Neo4j counts
python -m src.constructors.neo4j_graph_service --stats
```

### **Step 4: Export Chunks & Build Qdrant Hybrid Index**
```bash
# Export structure-aware chunks for all four data types
# (CVE by section, MITRE techniques, CAPEC patterns, CWE weaknesses)
python -m src.generators.export_kg_for_rag_direct --full

# Build Qdrant collections with dense + BM25 sparse vectors (hybrid search)
python -m src.generators.rag_system --build
```
### **Step 5: LLM Training (Optional)**
### **Step 5a: Prepare Training Dataset**
```bash
# Create training dataset from knowledge graph
python src/training/dataset_preparation.py

# Analyze data quality if needed
python src/training/run_data_analysis.py
```

### **Step 5b: Check System Requirements**
```bash
# Verify system can handle training
python src/training/system_check.py
```

### **Step 5c: Run Fine-Tuning**
```bash
python src/training/production_training.py
```

### **Step 5d: Test Fine-Tuned Model**
```bash
# Test the fine-tuned model
python src/training/hf_inference_engine.py
```

### **Step 6: Start Services**
```bash
# Terminal 1: Start API Server
python -m uvicorn src.api.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload

# Terminal 2: Start Gradio UI (Optional)
python src/ui/gradio_app.py
```

## **Test the System**
```bash
# Hybrid search — CVE collection (dense + BM25 sparse, RRF fusion)
python -m src.generators.rag_system --search "Log4j JNDI injection"

# Lexical wins: exact CVE-ID lookup
python -m src.generators.rag_system --search "CVE-2021-44228"

# Search MITRE techniques collection
python -m src.generators.rag_system --search "T1059 command scripting" --collection mitre

# Graph: find related CVEs via Neo4j
python -m src.constructors.neo4j_graph_service --similar CVE-2021-44228

# Test API endpoints
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/search \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "SQL injection vulnerabilities", "top_k": 5}'

# Graph endpoint
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/graph/similar \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"cve_id": "CVE-2021-44228", "k": 5}'

# Cross-collection search
curl -X POST http://localhost:8000/api/v1/search/mitre \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "lateral movement", "top_k": 5}'
```

## **Access Interfaces**
-  Gradio UI: http://localhost:7860
-  API Documentation: http://localhost:8000/docs  
-  API Health Check: http://localhost:8000/api/v1/health

##  Architecture Overview

### **Data Pipeline**
```
Raw CVE Data (NVD) → Processed CVE Data → CPE Extraction → Knowledge Graph → NetworkX Graph → Vector DB
```

### **Knowledge Graph Structure**
```
Nodes: CVEs, Products, Vendors, CWEs, CAPECs, MITRE Techniques, MITRE Tactics
Relationships: CVE→Product, CVE→CWE, CVE→CAPEC, CVE→MITRE, Product→Vendor
```
