Multi-Class vs. Multi-Label BERT for CVE-to-CWE Mapping: How Taxonomy Structure Shapes the Errors

Assigning Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE) categories to Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) records remains an important but largely manual step in vulnerability analysis. We study this task as a text classification problem and compare two modelling choices: a \emph{multi-class} formulation that predicts a single CWE per CVE and a \emph{multi-label} formulation that allows multiple assignments.
