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.

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/194/info A GET request that specifies a nonexistent file with an IISAPI-registered extension (ie .pl, .idq) will cause the IIS server to return an error message that includes the full path of the root web server directory. This can happen if the file is referenced as the target of the GET or passed in a variable to a script that looks for the file. Example: CGI Error The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are: Can't open perl script "C:\InetPub\scripts\ bogus.pl": No such file or directory
