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/2986/info poprelayd is a script that parses /var/log/maillog for valid pop logins, and based upon the login of a client, allows the person logged into the pop3 service to also send email from the ip address they're accessing the system with. poprelayd doesn't authenticate output to the /var/log/maillog file. This makes it possible for a user to create an arbitrary string via sendmail that will be logged to the file, thus allowing a remote user to relay mail through the SMTP server. telnet dumbcobalt 25 Trying 123.123.123.123...
