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/655/info A vulnerability in Solaris TCP/IP stack may allow remote users to panic the system. If the nmap network mapping utility is used with the OS fingerprinting option ('-O') against an active listening port and the server listening on that port is then killed the system will panic because of recursive calls to mutex_enter within the TCP streams driver. $nmap -O -p 80 targethost.com
