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.

It is reported that Microsoft Internet Explorer may permit aspects of the Internet Explorer interface to be spoofed. This could facilitate numerous attacks against users of the browser, including spoofing of both graphical components of the underlying operating system and overlaying browser components.
This misrepresentation may fool a user into taking dangerous actions. Users could then take further actions that compromise sensitive information based on this false sense of trust.
