Ethernet switches can be adversely affected by rapidly bombarding them with spoofed ARP responses. He port to MAC Address table (CAM Table) overflows on the switch and rather than failing completely, moves into broadcast mode, then the hacker can sniff all of the packets on the network.Which of the following tool achieves this?
Answer(s): A
macof floods the local network with random MAC addresses (causing some switches to fail open in repeating mode, facilitating sniffing).
You are writing an antivirus bypassing Trojan using C++ code wrapped into chess.c to create an executable file chess.exe. This Trojan when executed on the victim machine, scans the entire system (c:\) for data with the following text “Credit Card” and “password”. It then zips all the scanned files and sends an email to a predefined hotmail address.You want to make this Trojan persistent so that it survives computer reboots. Which registry entry will you add a key to make it persistent?
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE would be the natural place for a registry entry that starts services when the MACHINE is rebooted.
Why do you need to capture five to ten million packets in order to crack WEP with AirSnort?
Answer(s): C
Since the summer of 2001, WEP cracking has been a trivial but time consuming process. A few tools, AirSnort perhaps the most famous, that implement the Fluhrer-Mantin-Shamir (FMS) attack were released to the security community -- who until then were aware of the problems with WEP but did not have practical penetration testing tools. Although simple to use, these tools require a very large number of packets to be gathered before being able to crack a WEP key. The AirSnort web site estimates the total number of packets at five to ten million, but the number actually required may be higher than you think.
Bob is a Junior Administrator at ABC Company. On One of Linux machine he entered the following firewall rules:iptables –t filter –A INPUT -p tcp --dport 23 –j DROPWhy he entered the above line?
Answer(s): B
-t, --table This option specifies the packet matching table which the command should operate on. If the kernel is configured with automatic module loading, an attempt will be made to load the appropriate module for that table if it is not already there. The tables are as follows: filter This is the default table, and contains the built-in chains INPUT (for packets coming into the box itself), FORWARD (for packets being routed through the box), and OUTPUT (for locally-generated packets). nat This table is consulted when a packet which is creates a new connection is encountered. It consists of three built-ins: PREROUTING (for altering packets as soon as they come in), OUTPUT (for altering locally-generated packets before routing), and POSTROUTING (for altering packets as they are about to go out). mangle This table is used for specialized packet alteration. It has two built-in chains: PREROUTING (for altering incoming packets before routing) and OUTPUT (for altering locally-generated packets before routing). -A, --append Append one or more rules to the end of the selected chain. When the source and/or destination names resolve to more than one address, a rule will be added for each possible address combination. -p, --protocol [!] protocol The protocol of the rule or of the packet to check. The specified protocol can be one of tcp, udp, icmp, or all, or it can be a numeric value, representing one of these protocols or a different one. Also a protocol name from /etc/protocols is allowed. A "!" argument before the protocol inverts the test. The number zero is equivalent to all. Protocol all will match with all protocols and is taken as default when this option is omitted. All may not be used in in combination with the check command. --destination-port [!] [port[:port]] Destination port or port range specification. The flag --dport is an alias for this option. -j, --jump target This specifies the target of the rule; ie. what to do if the packet matches it. The target can be a user-defined chain (not the one this rule is in), one of the special builtin targets which decide the fate of the packet immediately, or an extension (see EXTENSIONS below). If this option is omitted in a rule, then matching the rule will have no effect on the packet's fate, but the counters on the rule will be incremented.
You are doing IP spoofing while you scan your target. You find that the target has port 23 open.Anyway you are unable to connect. Why?
The question is not telling you what state the port is being reported by the scanning utility, if the program used to conduct this is nmap, nmap will show you one of three states – “open”, “closed”, or “filtered” a port can be in an “open” state yet filtered, usually by a stateful packet inspection filter (ie. Netfilter for linux, ipfilter for bsd). C and D to make any sense for this question, their bogus, and B, “You cannot spoof + TCP”, well you can spoof + TCP, so we strike that out.
