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/5191/info The iPlanet Web Server search engine is prone to a file disclosure vulnerability. It is possible for remote attackers to make requests to the search engine which will cause arbitrary readable files on the host running the vulnerable software to be disclosed to the attacker. This issue was reported for iPlanet Web Server on Microsoft Windows operating systems. Since the server typically runs in the SYSTEM context on these operating systems, it may be possible for an attacker to disclose the contents of arbitrary files. It has not been confirmed whether this vulnerability exists on other platforms that the software is compatible with. The search engine functionality does not appear to be available for versions of the software on Linux platforms. GET /search?NS-query-pat=..\..\..\..\..\boot.ini
