Hi!
Attached files have two alternative proposals of adding AISVS mappings to OpenCRE. This took longer than expected and for the same reason there are now several attachments.
At this point I have been looking at these too long and would appreciate maintainers second pair of eyes having a look at the proposals.
Attachment contents
| File |
Purpose |
AISVS-1.0-OpenCRE-mapping-v2-CONSOLIDATED.xls |
The actual submission. CRE mapping template with AISVS columns appended. |
AISVS-1.0-OpenCRE-mapping-v2-CONSOLIDATED.csv |
Same data as CSV, for diffing. |
new_cre_proposals_v2.csv |
The 6 proposed new CREs: driving requirements, chapters, suggested parent, full text. |
MAPPING-READABLE-v2.md |
Full mapping as per-chapter tables, for review without a spreadsheet. |
AISVS-1.0-OpenCRE-mapping-v2-FORCED.xls |
Fallback variant with zero new CREs. |
AISVS-1.0-OpenCRE-mapping-v2-FORCED.csv |
Same as CSV again. |
FORCED-MAPPING-RATIONALE-v2.md |
What forcing the remaining gaps onto existing CREs costs. |
Conventions
Modelled after ASVS entries in OpenCRE:
OWASP AISVS|name has the full requirement sentence (same way ASVS uses section).
OWASP AISVS|id has the native requirement ID, for example 1.1.1.
OWASP AISVS|hyperlink is a section-level deep link into the frozen chapter file. AISVS has no per-requirement anchors, same limitation as ASVS. All anchors were verified against GitHub's rendered HTML.
OWASP AISVS|description has the AISVS level and our confidence rating, plus a forced: <rating> suffix on rows where the mapping was a substitute. Drop the column if unwanted.
- New CRE names follow the observed house style: sentence-case noun phrases, two to five words, domain-qualified, vendor-neutral, suggested as leaves under
663-200 Technical AI security controls.
The 6 proposed new CREs
| Proposed CRE |
Drives |
Chapter |
| Agent action reversibility gating |
9.2.3, 9.2.4, 9.2.10 |
C9 |
| Agent action approval integrity |
9.2.2, 9.2.8 |
C9 |
| Agent tool capability declaration and enforcement |
9.3.3, 9.3.4 |
C9 |
| Agent action chain non-repudiation |
9.4.2 |
C9 |
| Token passthrough prohibition in AI tool servers |
10.2.7 |
C10 |
| AI tool definition change detection |
10.4.8 |
C10 |
All six are in the agentic-chapters (C9/C10) that postdate most standards currently in OpenCRE. Forcing any of these into an existing CRE creates just noise for users of CREs.
FORCED-MAPPING-RATIONALE-v2.md walks through each, but the short version is: least privilege does not express reversibility, privacy consent does not express canonicalised action parameters, an SDLC audit trail does not express cryptographic binding of a runtime chain, and OAuth revocation does not express confused-deputy prevention.
Deferred proposals
Following AISVS controls I decided to now intentionally force-fit rather than propose new CREs. Maintainer input is welcome on the deferred four.

One of these (5.3.2 → 515-021 network isolation) is still a wrong forced fit: network isolation cannot stop GPU-memory side channels. I am flagging it here because withdrawing the proposal is a scoping decision, not a claim that the gap disappears. If a later CREs adds compute-isolation coverage, that mapping could be added.
