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/1714/info 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.
