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.

Mac OS X is the BSD-based operating system distributed and maintained by Apple.
It has been discovered that some types of links, when clicked on, may result in the execution of arbitrary commands. Due to the improper handling of some links, a user clicking on a link containing special characters and embedded commands could cause the execution of the commands in the link to be carried out in a terminal.app window. These commands would be executed in the security context of the user.
