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/29741/info Glub Tech Secure FTP is prone to a directory-traversal vulnerability because the application fails to sufficiently sanitize user-supplied input. This issue occurs in the FTP client. Exploiting these issues will allow an attacker to write arbitrary files to locations outside of the application's current directory. This could help the attacker launch further attacks. Secure FTP 2.5.15 for Microsoft Windows is vulnerable; other versions may also be affected. Response to LIST: \..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\..\testfile.txt\r\n
