Metrics

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.

Non-administrative Imail and WS_FTP Server users may elevate their privileges to administrator for these applications by modifying a specific registry value. Once a person has obtained administrative privileges, they may use the application interface (locally) to read email, create accounts, delete accounts, etc.
Access the following registry key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Ipswitch\IMail\Domains\Machine_name\Users\Username"
Modify the Flag value to read "1920". 1920 gives the user account administrator permissions to IMail and WS_FTP Server.
