Security databases such as Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE), Common Weakness Enumeration (CWE), and Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification (CAPEC) maintain diverse high-quality security concepts, which are treated as security entities. Meanwhile, security entities are documented with many potential relation types that profit for security analysis and comprehension across these three popular databases. To support reasoning security entity relationships, translation-based knowledge graph representation learning treats each triple independently for the entity prediction. However, it neglects the important semantic information about the neighbor entities around the triples. To address it, we propose a text-enhanced graph attention network model (text-enhanced GAT). This model highlights the importance of the knowledge in the 2-hop neighbors surrounding a triple, under the observation of the diversity of each entity. Thus, we can capture more structural and textual information from the knowledge graph about the security databases. Extensive experiments are designed to evaluate the effectiveness of our proposed model on the prediction of security entity relationships. Moreover, the experimental results outperform the state-of-the-art by Mean Reciprocal Rank (MRR) 0.132 for detecting the missing relationships.
