100% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days (percentile 99th)

FIRST EPSS, updated 17 Oct 2026. About EPSS

CVSS is severity, EPSS is likelihood, KEV means already exploited. EPSS is a statistical probability, not a certainty: a low score does not make a bug safe, and a high one does not prove it is being exploited.
