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.

Wireshark is prone to a remote denial-of-service vulnerability because it fails to properly handle certain types of packets.
Attackers can exploit this issue to cause the application to enter an infinite loop which may cause denial-of-service conditions.
Wireshark 1.4.0 to 1.4.1 are vulnerable.
