We recently helped a client implement this model in Jira with the help of Abacus—the Jira Calculator. Here's how it worked:
Working in Jira
The first step in the process was to create 16 Custom Fields in Jira corresponding to the 16 Risk Factors used in OWASP methodology. Risk Factors are divided into subgroups, including:

A fifth tab was created to display the average Risk Ratings (0 to 9) and corresponding Impact Levels (Low, Medium, High) for the subgroups.
Working in Abacus
