session ID

Boney, a professional hacker, targets an organization for financial benefits. He performs an attack by sending his session ID using an MITM attack technique. Boney first obtains a valid session ID by logging into a service and later feeds the same session ID to the target employee. The session ID links the target employee to Boney’s account page without disclosing any information to the victim. When the target employee click on the link, all the sensitive payment details entered in a form are linked to Boney’s account. What is the attack performed by Boney in the above scenario?

technique

To create a botnet, the attacker can use several technique to scan vulnerable machines. The attacker first collects information about a large number of vulnerable machines to create a list. Subsequently, they infect the machines. The list is divided by assigning half of the list to the newly compromised machines. The scanning process runs simultaneously. This technique ensure the spreading and installation of malicious code in little time. Which technique is discussed here ?

switch

Robin, a professional hacker, targeted an organization’s network to sniff all the traffic. During this process, Robin plugged in a rough switch to an unused port in the LAN with a priority lower than any other switch in the network so that he could make it a root bridge that will later allow him to sniff all the traffic in the network. What is the attack performed by Robin in above scenario?

Bob

Samuel, a professional hacker, monitored and intercepted already established traffic between Bob and host machine to predict Bob’s ISN. Using this ISN, Samuel sent spoofed packets with Bob’s IP address to the host machine. The host machine responded with a packet having an incremented ISN. Consequently, Bob’s connection got hung, and Samuel was able to communicate with the host machine on behalf of Bob. What is the type of attack performed by Samuel in the above scenario?

SSLv2

Samuel a security administrator, is accessing the configuration of a web server. He noticed that the server permits SSLv2 connections, and the same private key certificate is used on a different server that allows SSLv2 connections. This vulnerability makes the web server vulnerable to attack as the SSLv2 server can leak key information. Which of the following attack can be performed by exploiting the above vulnerability?
