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/989/info Microsoft's Personal Web Server and Front Page Personal Web Server will follow '/..../' strings in requested URLs, allowing remote users to obtain unauthenticated read access to files and directories on the same logical drive as the web content. Hidden files are viewable via this method, although the Front Page directory itself is not. The name and path of the desired file must be known to the attacker. Note that while these programs support Windows 95, 98 and NT, only the Win9x versions are vulnerable. http://target/..../directory/filename.ext
