A. An application proxy firewall 

B. A stateful inspection firewall 

C. A host based IDS 

D. A Honeypot 

Answer: B


Q53. When a normal TCP connection starts, a destination host receives a SYN (synchronize/start) packet from a source host and sends back a SYN/ACK (synchronize acknowledge). The destination host must then hear an ACK (acknowledge) of the SYN/ACK before the connection is established. This is referred to as the "TCP three-way handshake." While waiting for the ACK to the SYN ACK, a connection queue of finite size on the destination host keeps track of connections waiting to be completed. This queue typically empties quickly since the ACK is expected to arrive a few milliseconds after the SYN ACK. How would an attacker exploit this design by launching TCP SYN attack? 

A. Attacker generates TCP SYN packets with random destination addresses towards a victim host 

B. Attacker floods TCP SYN packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

C. Attacker generates TCP ACK packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

D. Attacker generates TCP RST packets with random source addresses towards a victim host 

Answer: B


Q54. Neil monitors his firewall rules and log files closely on a regular basis. Some of the users have complained to Neil that there are a few employees who are visiting offensive web sites during work hours, without consideration for others. Neil knows that he has an updated content filtering system and that such access should not be authorized. 

What type of technique might be used by these offenders to access the Internet without restriction? 

A. They are using UDP which is always authorized at the firewall. 

B. They are using tunneling software which allows them to communicate with protocols in a way it was not intended. 

C. They have been able to compromise the firewall, modify the rules, and give themselves proper access. 

D. They are using an older version of Internet Explorer that allows them to bypass the proxy server. 

Answer: B

Explanation: This can be accomplished by, for example, tunneling the http traffic over SSH if you have a SSH server answering to your connection, you enable dynamic forwarding in the ssh client and configure Internet Explorer to use a SOCKS Proxy for network traffic. 


Q55. Peter is a Linux network admin. As a knowledgeable security consultant, he turns to you to look for help on a firewall. He wants to use Linux as his firewall and use the latest freely available version that is offered. What do you recommend? 

Select the best answer. 

A. Ipchains 

B. Iptables 

C. Checkpoint FW for Linux 

D. Ipfwadm 

Answer: B 

Explanation:

Ipchains was improved over ipfwadm with its chaining mechanism so that it can have multiple rulesets. However, it isn't the latest version of a free Linux firewall. Iptables replaced ipchains and is the latest of the free Linux firewall tools. Any Checkpoint firewall is not going to meet Jason's desire to have a free firewall. Ipfwadm is used to build Linux firewall rules prior to 2.2.0. It is a outdated version.

A. Someone who is hacking for ethical reasons. 

B. Someone who is using his/her skills for ethical reasons. 

C. Someone who is using his/her skills for defensive purposes. 

D. Someone who is using his/her skills for offensive purposes.

Q58. Switches maintain a CAM Table that maps individual MAC addresses on the network to physical ports on the switch. 


In MAC flooding attack, a switch is fed with many Ethernet frames, each containing different source MAC addresses, by the attacker. Switches have a limited memory for mapping various MAC addresses to physical ports. What happens when the CAM table becomes full? 

A. Switch then acts as hub by broadcasting packets to all machines on the network 

B. The CAM overflow table will cause the switch to crash causing Denial of Service 

C. The switch replaces outgoing frame switch factory default MAC address of FF:FF:FF:FF:FF:FF 

D. Every packet is dropped and the switch sends out SNMP alerts to the IDS port 

Answer: A


Q59. Consider the following code: 


If an attacker can trick a victim user to click a link like this and the web application does not validate input, then the victim’s browser will pop up an alert showing the users current set of cookies. An attacker can do much more damage, including stealing passwords, resetting your home page or redirecting the user to another web site. 

What is the countermeasure against XSS scripting? 

A. Create an IP access list and restrict connections based on port number 

B. Replace “<” and “>” characters with ?lt; and ?gt; using server scripts 

C. Disable Javascript in IE and Firefox browsers 

D. Connect to the server using HTTPS protocol instead of HTTP 

Answer: B

Explanation: The correct answer contains a string which is an HTML-quoted version of the original script. The quoted versions of these characters will appear as literals in a browser, rather than with their special meaning as HTML tags. This prevents any script from being injected into HTML output, but it also prevents any user-supplied input from being formatted with benign HTML. 

Topic 13, Web Based Password Cracking Techniques 


Q60. When discussing passwords, what is considered a brute force attack? 

A. You attempt every single possibility until you exhaust all possible combinations or discover the password 

B. You threaten to use the rubber hose on someone unless they reveal their password 

C. You load a dictionary of words into your cracking program 

D. You create hashes of a large number of words and compare it with the encrypted passwords 

E. You wait until the password expires 

Answer: A

Explanation: Brute force cracking is a time consuming process where you try every possible combination of letters, numbers, and characters until you discover a match.
