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/10163/info A denial of service vulnerability has been reported in Macromedia ColdFusion MX that is reported to occur when the software attempts to write oversized error messages. These error messages will be logged by the server but may also be written into dynamically generated error pages. It is possible to trigger this condition remotely since remote users may influence the contents of error messages. <cfset longstr = RepeatString("1234567890123456789012345678901234567890", 10000) > <cfset the_date = #DateFormat(longstr)#> <cfoutput>#the_date#</cfoutput>
