The EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited. Higher EPSS scores indicate a higher likelihood of exploitation.
* Option A (Target 1) #:
* EPSS 0.6 (60% chance of exploitation)
* CVSS 4 (Medium severity)
* # Best candidate since it has the highest likelihood of exploitation.
* Option B (Target 2) #: EPSS 0.3 (30%) is lower, making it less likely to be attacked.
* Option C (Target 3) #: EPSS 0.6 is high, but CVSS 1 is very low, meaning the vulnerability is not critical.
* Option D (Target 4) #: CVSS 4.5 is higher, but EPSS 0.4 is lower, meaning attackers are less likely to exploit it.
