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/28745/info HP OpenView Network Node Manager is prone to multiple vulnerabilities affecting the 'ovalarmsrv.exe' and 'ovtopmd.exe' processes. These issues include a directory-traversal issue and multiple denial-of-service issues. UPDATE (April 14, 2008): Secunia Research discovered, independently, that the 'OpenView5.exe' process is also prone to the directory-traversal issue; this affects Network Node Manager 7.51. Note that 'ovalarmsrv.exe' may also be named 'OpenView5.exe'. Attackers can exploit these issues to access potentially sensitive data on the affected computer or to deny service to legitimate users. HP OpenView Network Node Manager 7.53 is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. http://www.example.com/OvCgi/OpenView5.exe?Target=Main&Action=../../../../../../windows/win.ini
