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.

GnuPG is affected by a detached signature verification-bypass vulnerability because it fails to properly notify scripts that an invalid detached signature was presented and that the verification process has failed.
Exploiting this issue allows attackers to bypass the signature-verification process used in some automated scripts. Depending on the use of GnuPG, this may result in a false sense of security, the installation of malicious packages, the execution of attacker-supplied code, or other attacks.
An example demonstrating this issue was provided:
fortune >x.txt
perl -e 'print "\xca"x"64"' >x.txt.sig
gpgv x.txt.sig x.txt
echo $?
This creates a file as well as an obviously invalid detached signature file. The file is then successfully validated by 'gpgv', since the exit status is '0'.
