CVE Descriptions

Apple iCal 3.0.1 on Mac OS X allows remote CalDAV servers, and user-assisted remote attackers, to cause a denial of service (NULL pointer dereference and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a .ics file containing (1) a large 16-bit integer on a TRIGGER line, or (2) a large integer in a COUNT field on an RRULE line.

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/28629/info Apple iCal is prone to an integer-overflow vulnerability because it fails to ensure that integer values aren't overrun. An attacker can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code within the context of the affected application. Failed exploit attempts will result in a denial-of-service condition. This issue affects iCal 3.0.1 running on Mac OS X 10.5.1; previous versions may also be affected.
