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.

Author : Gutierrez
EDB Verified : Yes

source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/331/info A vulnerability exists in NetBSD version 1.3.2 and lower, and Silicon Graphics Inc's IRIX versions 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5 and 6.5.1. The at(1) program can be supplied with a -f flag, and an error is access validation can result in the mailing of portions of unreadable files to any user who can run at. At uses seteuid to set the appropriate user id to run under. However, it incorrectly sets its real and effective uid to 0 prior to opening the filename passed to the -f flag. This allows any user to read any file on the filesystem. $ at -f /etc/shadow now + 1 minute This will mail back a portion of the shadow file to the user.
