Computers and Technology
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Option (c) Remote code exploits aim to escalate attackers’ privileges, while XSS attacks aim to gain access only

Explanation:

  • XSS stands for Cross-site Scripting. In this types of attacks, a malicious code is injected in the trusted web sites and it sends the malicious code into the users. The users think that the genuine code was sent but not.
  • This involves sending server side scripts which are executed by the user and these may even change the html pages too.
  • Remote code exploitation means the user can inject the code and try to gain access. Usually, all the programming languages have evaluation functions if used the user can try to gain the access with this evaluation functions.
  • This can lead to the compromise of the whole web server too.So, it is not a good practice to use the evaluation functions by the developers.
  • In this type of attack, the attacker tries to inject the code remotely.
  • Option (c) is correct and options (a),(b) and (d) are wrong options.

Explain how the use of Git and a shared public Git repository simplifies the process of managing opensource development when man
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

Git is a collaborative software used by members of a group to share and work on the same projects. Github is a web application that uses git to link people working together on a codebase. With git and Github, opensource projects can be accessed and collaborated on by volunteers.

Explanation:

Opensource development is a collaborative group of developers working together on a software or platform with a general public license. When working on an opensource project, each developer is able to folk or get a copy of the repository downloaded to a local computer which they can work on and push or update to the actual online repository if the condition for a change is met.

Write a function that takes as input a single integer parameter n and computes the nth Fibonacci Sequence number. The Fibonacci
RSB [31]

Answer:

Following are the code to this question:

def Fibonacci(n):#defining a method Fibonacci that accept a parameter

   a = 1#defining a variable a that holds a value 1

   b = 1#defining a variable b that holds a value 1

   if n <= 0:# Use if to check n value

       print("invalid number")#print message

   elif n == 2:#defining elif that check n equal to 2

        return 1#return 1

   else:#defining else block

       print(a)#print value of a

       print(b)#print value of b

       for i in range(2,n):#defining for loop to calculate series

           s = a + b# add value in s variable

           a = b # interchange value

           b = s# hold s value

           print(s)#print s value

Fibonacci(10)#calling method

Output:

1

1

2

3

5

8

13

21

34

55

Explanation:

In the above-given program code, a method "Fibonacci" is defined, which holds a value "n" in its parameter, and inside the method two-variable "a and b" is defined, that holds a value "1".

  • In the next step, if a block is defined that checks n value is less than equal to 0, it will print "invalid number" as a message.
  • In the elif, it checks n value is equal to 2 it will return a value that is 1.
  • In the else block, it will calculate the Fibonacci series and print its value.
