CPE, which stands for Common Platform Enumeration, is a standardized scheme for naming hardware, software, and operating systems. CPE provides a structured naming scheme to uniquely identify and classify information technology systems, platforms, and packages based on certain attributes such as vendor, product name, version, update, edition, and language.
CWE, or Common Weakness Enumeration, is a comprehensive list and categorization of software weaknesses and vulnerabilities. It serves as a common language for describing software security weaknesses in architecture, design, code, or implementation that can lead to vulnerabilities.
CAPEC, which stands for Common Attack Pattern Enumeration and Classification, is a comprehensive, publicly available resource that documents common patterns of attack employed by adversaries in cyber attacks. This knowledge base aims to understand and articulate common vulnerabilities and the methods attackers use to exploit them.

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.

Due to a flaw in the method Microsoft Windows Media Player 7 handles OCX controls (ActiveX containers) in embedded in RTF email messages, it is possible to crash RTF-enabled email clients such as Microsoft Outlook and Outlook Express. While this vulnerability lies in the OCX control implementation in Windows Media Player 7, it only affects RTF-enabled email clients.
If a user of Outlook or Outlook Express were to receive an RTF email containing an embedded OCX control associated with Windows Media Player 7, the client would fail when the message was closed. Restarting the application would be required in order to regain normal functionality. In addition, deleting the offending email would resume normal operations of the email client. The functionality of Windows Media Player 7 would not be affected in any way.
