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.

Microsoft IIS 5.0 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via an HTTP request with a content-length value that is larger than the size of the request, which prevents IIS from timing out the connection.

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.

Microsoft IIS 5.0 may be prone to a denial of service condition when sent a specially crafted malformed HTTP GET header.
If an IIS 5.0 web server is sent a crafted HTTP GET request which contains a falsified and excessive "Content-Length" field, it behaves in an unusual manner. The server keeps the connection open and does not time out, but does not respond otherwise. It is possible that this may be used to cause a denial of service to the web server.
The following HTTP GET Header, containing a falsified Content-Length field, is sufficient to cause the unexpected behavior:
GET /testfile HTTP/1.1
Accept: image/gif, image/x-xbitmap, image/jpeg, image/pjpeg,
application/vnd.ms-excel, application/vnd.ms-powerpoint,
application/msword, */*
Accept-Language: en-us
Accept-Encoding: gzip, deflate
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.01; Windows NT 5.0)
Host: 192.168.0.10
Connection: Keep-Alive
Content-Length: 5300643
