EPSS

EPSS is a scoring model that predicts the likelihood of a vulnerability being exploited.

EPSS Score

The EPSS model produces a probability score between 0 and 1 (0 and 100%). The higher the score, the greater the probability that a vulnerability will be exploited.

EPSS Percentile

The percentile is used to rank CVE according to their EPSS score. For example, a CVE in the 95th percentile according to its EPSS score is more likely to be exploited than 95% of other CVE. Thus, the percentile is used to compare the EPSS score of a CVE with that of other CVE.

Exploit information

Exploit Database EDB-ID : 20435

Author : @stake
EDB Verified : Yes

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2003/info NCSA HTTPd and comes with a CGI sample shell script, test-cgi, located by default in /cgi-bin. This script does not properly enclose an "ECHO" command in quotes, and as a result "shell expansion" of the * character can occur under some configurations. This allows a remote attacker to obtain file listings, by passing *, /*, /usr/* etc., as variables. The ECHO command expands the * to give a directory listing of the specified directory. This could be used to gain information to facilitate future attacks. This is identical to a problem with another sample script, nph-test-cgi. See references. http://target/cgi-bin/test-cgi?/* http://target/cgi-bin/test-cgi?*
