Abstract The key to information security is software security. Owing to the market failure, there are many serious software security problems. Establishing a new market mechanism may be an effective path to solve the problem of market failure. In this paper, the theories of software security vulnerability market are proposed and practiced, but it is hard to success. The legal liability system can provide an incentive to software companies to promote software security. Constructing software product liability system, making software companies liable for its security defects, may be a viable path
