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/215/info The Windows clipboard contains data that has been cut or copied from various windows applications. This data can be accessed and posted to malicious web forms at web sites without the knowledge of the visiting end-user. Normally, Microsoft security prevents forms from accessing data other than what was copied from within the same application, however, a Microsoft Forms 2.0 TextBox ActiveX object can bypass these security rules. The Forms 2.0 ActiveX object does not come with the Operating System. This control is loaded when Visual Basic 5.0, Project 98, Outlook 98, or Office 97 is installed on the host. function GetClipBoard() { tb.paste(); // paste over the MS Forms 2.0 TextBox document.forms(0).S1.value=tb.text; // moves the text to the text area box }
