NOTE: these issues have been disputed by the vendor, stating "I can't reproduce a single one of these". The researcher is known to be unreliable

CVSS

Exploitation probability (EPSS)

EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
