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.

Apache on Red Hat Linux with with the UserDir directive enabled generates different error codes when a username exists and there is no public_html directory and when the username does not exist, which could allow remote attackers to determine valid usernames on the server.

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.

Versions of Apache webserver shipping with Red Hat Linux 7.0 (and possibly other Apache distributions) install with a default misconfiguration which could allow remote users to determine whether a give username exists on the vulnerable system.
http://www.example.com/~<username>
When a remote user makes a request for a possible user's default home page, the server returns one of three responses:
In a case where <username> is a valid user account, and has been configured with a homepage, the server responds with the user's homepage.
When <username> exists on the system, but has not been assigned a homepage document, the server returns the message "You don't have permission to access /~username on this server."
However, if the tested username does not exist as an account on the system, the Apache server's response includes the message "The requested URL /~username was not found on this server."
Because the server responds differently in the latter two cases, a remote user can test and enumerate possible usernames. Properly exploited, this information could be used in further attacks on the vulnerable hos
