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/1040/info StarOffice is a desktop office suite offered by Sun Microsystems. StarScheduler is a groupware server that ships with StarOffice and includes a webserver that runs as root by default. When a request it sent to a webserver for a document, the StarScheduler httpd will follow "../" paths if provided. As a result, exploiting this allows an attacker to view any file on the target system (the server runs as root..), including files such as /etc/shadow. http://starscheduler_server:801/../../../../etc/shadow
