EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System) estimates a 3.4% chance this CVE is exploited in the wild within the next 30 days — higher than 89% of all CVEs. It complements CVSS: a high EPSS on a mid-severity CVE can still be urgent.

Linux kernel contains an out-of-bounds write vulnerability in the uvc_parse_streaming component of the USB Video Class (UVC) driver that could allow for physical escalation of privilege.
