Answer:

Option (c) DNS attack through cache poisoning

Explanation:

  • DNS Attack through cache poisoning means Domain Name System through cache poisoning.
  • DNS protocol is a system in which the user friendly domain name is converted into the computer friendly IP address.
  • In this DNS attack through cache poisoning, the attacker corrupts the DNS server which gives the fraudulent or malicious IP address instead of the correct IP address.
  • So, in this the website traffic is redirected to a fake website.
  • In this case, the user is of the opinion that he / she has entered the correct domain name but internally the IP address is corrupted and so the user is seeing a defaced website.
  • Option (a) Denial of Service Attack is different from this.This is not related to the case stated here. So, option (a) is wrong.
  • Option (b) Session Hijacking is a different attack from this. This is not related to the case stated here. So, option (b) is wrong.
  • Option (d) Buffer Overflow is a different attack from this. This is not related to the case stated here. So, option (d) is wrong.
