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 Database EDB-ID : 20558

Publication date : 1997-12-29 23h00 +00:00
Author : Michal Zalewski
EDB Verified : Yes

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/2216/info Apache Web Server 1.2 and previous versions are subject to a denial of service. By requesting a malformed GET request composed of an unusually large number of '/' characters, an attacker can cause CPU usage to spike. A restart of the service is required to gain normal functionality. https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb-bin-sploits/-/raw/main/bin-sploits/20558.zip
