CPE, which stands for Common Platform Enumeration, is a standardized scheme for naming hardware, software, and operating systems. CPE provides a structured naming scheme to uniquely identify and classify information technology systems, platforms, and packages based on certain attributes such as vendor, product name, version, update, edition, and language.
CWE, or Common Weakness Enumeration, is a comprehensive list and categorization of software weaknesses and vulnerabilities. It serves as a common language for describing software security weaknesses in architecture, design, code, or implementation that can lead to vulnerabilities.
CAPEC, which stands for Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification, is a comprehensive, publicly available resource that documents common patterns of attack employed by adversaries in cyber attacks. This knowledge base aims to understand and articulate common vulnerabilities and the methods attackers use to exploit them.

Stack-based buffer overflow in the client acceptor daemon (CAD) scheduler in the client in IBM Tivoli Storage Manager (TSM) 5.3 before 5.3.6.7, 5.4 before 5.4.3, 5.5 before 5.5.2.2, and 6.1 before 6.1.0.2, and TSM Express 5.3.3.0 through 5.3.6.6, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via crafted data in a TCP packet.
Improper Restriction of Operations within the Bounds of a Memory Buffer The product performs operations on a memory buffer, but it reads from or writes to a memory location outside the buffer's intended boundary. This may result in read or write operations on unexpected memory locations that could be linked to other variables, data structures, or internal program data.

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.

'Name' => 'IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Express CAD Service Buffer Overflow',
'Description' => %q{
This module exploits a stack buffer overflow in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Express CAD Service.
By sending a "ping" packet containing a long string, an attacker can execute arbitrary code.
NOTE: the dsmcad.exe service must be in a particular state (CadWaitingStatus = 1) in order
for the vulnerable code to be reached. This state doesn't appear to be reachable when the
TSM server is not running. This service does not restart.
