Question

1. Which of the following is not related to a buffer overflow? A. Static buffer overflow B. Index error C. Canonicalization error D. Heap overflow

Answer 1

Answer: C) Canonicalization error

Explanation:

Canonicalization error is the error or fault that occurs when data is changed into canonical form or standard form that persist different representation.This can create fault when different filenames or structure is assigned to data and canonization cannot take place as it works for simple data representation.

• Other options are incorrect because static buffer flow is stable writing or reading of data that reaches outside the buffer boundary.Index error is accessing of index by any user that is found beyond the index's list boundary.
• Heap overflow is the stack gets overlowed outside the boundary while overwriting heap.Thus, the correct option is option(C).
