CPE, which stands for Common Platform Enumeration, is a standardized scheme for naming hardware, software, and operating systems. CPE provides a structured naming scheme to uniquely identify and classify information technology systems, platforms, and packages based on certain attributes such as vendor, product name, version, update, edition, and language.
CWE, or Common Weakness Enumeration, is a comprehensive list and categorization of software weaknesses and vulnerabilities. It serves as a common language for describing software security weaknesses in architecture, design, code, or implementation that can lead to vulnerabilities.
CAPEC, which stands for Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification, is a comprehensive, publicly available resource that documents common patterns of attack employed by adversaries in cyber attacks. This knowledge base aims to understand and articulate common vulnerabilities and the methods attackers use to exploit them.

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.

view-source is a script included with the httpd package bundled with Skunkware 2.0. Skunkware 2.0 is a variant of the UNIX Operating System distributed by Santa Cruz Operations.
A problem with the view-source script could allow access to restricted files remotely. The problem occurs in the handling of slashes and dots when appended to the view-source script. By appending a series of double-dots and slashes to a query using the view-source script, it is possible to traverse the directory structure on a web server. By doing so, it is possible for to view the contents of directories, and files that are readable by the UID of the httpd process. This flaw makes it possible for a user with malicious motives to read files on a remote system and gather intelligence for an attack against the system, as well as other potentially sensitive information.
