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 Debian GNU/Linux 2.1 apache package by default allows anyone to view /usr/doc via the web, remotely. This is because srm.conf is preconfigured with the line:
Alias /doc/ /usr/doc/
Boa is also preconfigured this way.
lynx http://some.host/doc
This will provide you with all of the information in /usr/doc, which could be used to find vulnerable software on the remote machine.
