Answer:
If you mean how to perform the risk assessment for a software, basically you need to perform the risk assessment in the same way that for another asset, identifying threats/vulnerabilities and calculating the risk considering the impact and the likelihood of the threats, but in the case of software, you need to identify threats/vulnerabilities specifically related to the software (for example, regarding threats: software errors, unauthorized use of software, malicious code, unauthorized installation of software, etc. and regarding vulnerabilities: complicated user interface, default passwords not changed, insufficiente software testing, etc.). Here you can see a catalogue of threats/vulnerabilities “Catalogue of threats & vulnerabilities” : https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/threats-vulnerabilities/

This article can be also useful for you “ISO 27001 risk assessment: How to match assets, threats and vulnerabilities” : https://advisera.com/27001academy/knowledgebase/iso-27001-risk-assessment-how-to-match-assets-threats-and-vulnerabilities/ cademy/knowledgebase/iso-27001-risk-assessment-how-to-match-assets-threats-and-vulnerabilities/
