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.

The field at IntelAccelerator+0xe60 is a pointer to a GSTContextKernel allocated in the ::gstqCreateInfoMethod.
In the ::start method this field is initialized to NULL. The IGAccelDevice external method gst_configure (0x206)
calls gstqConfigure which doesn't check whether the GSTContextKernel pointer is NULL, therefore by calling
this external method before calling any others which allocate the GSTContextKernel we can cause a kernel
NULL pointer dereference. The GSTContextKernel structure contains pointers, one of which eventually leads
to control of a kernel virtual method call. This PoC will kernel panic calling 0xffff800041414141.
Tested on OS X ElCapitan 10.11.1 (15b42) on MacBookAir5,2
