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.

Microsoft Excel is prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability.
Successfully exploiting this issue allows attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of targeted users.
A proof-of-concept malicious code named 'Trojan.Hongmosa' is actively exploiting this vulnerability, which results in crashing Excel running on Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, or Korean Windows.
Note that Microsoft Office applications include functionality to embed Office files as objects contained in other Office files. As an example, Microsoft Word files may contain embedded malicious Microsoft Excel files, making Word documents another possible attack vector.
This issue is distinct from the issue described in BID 18422 (Microsoft Excel Unspecified Remote Code Execution Vulnerability). Proof-of-concept 'Nanika.xls' was originally thought to be related to BID 18422; however, reports indicate that 'Nanika.xls' triggers this vulnerability.
