Q251. Which of the following is most effective against passwords ? 

Select the Answer: 

A. Dictionary Attack 

B. BruteForce attack 

C. Targeted Attack 

D. Manual password Attack 

Answer: B

Explanation: The most effective means of password attack is brute force, in a brute force attack the program will attempt to use every possible combination of characters. While this takes longer then a dictionary attack, which uses a text file of real words, it is always capable of breaking the password. 


Q252. You just purchased the latest DELL computer, which comes pre-installed with Windows XP, McAfee antivirus software and a host of other applications. You want to connect Ethernet wire to your cable modem and start using the computer immediately. 

Windows is dangerously insecure when unpacked from the box, and there are a few things that you must do before you use it. 

A. New Installation of Windows Should be patched by installation the latest service packs and hotfixes 

B. Enable “guest” account 

C. Install a personal firewall and lock down unused ports from connecting to your computer 

D. Install the latest signatures for Antivirus software 

E. Configure “Windows Update” to automatic 

F. Create a non-admin user with a complex password and login to this account 

Answer: ACDEF

Explanation: The guest account is a possible vulnerability to your system so you should not enable it unless needed. Otherwise you should perform all other actions mentioned in order to have a secure system. 

Topic 23, Mixed Questions 

566. One of the better features of NetWare is the use of packet signature that includes cryptographic signatures. The packet signature mechanism has four levels from 0 to 3. 

In the list below which of the choices represent the level that forces NetWare to sign all packets? 

A. 0 (zero) 

B. 1 

C. 2 

D. 3 

Answer: D

Explanation: 0Server does not sign packets (regardless of the client level). 

1Server signs packets if the client is capable of signing (client level is 2 or higher). 

2Server signs packets if the client is capable of signing (client level is 1 or higher). 

3Server signs packets and requires all clients to sign packets or logging in will fail. 


Q253. Jackson discovers that the wireless AP transmits 128 bytes of plaintext, and the station responds by encrypting the plaintext. It then transmits the resulting ciphertext using the same key and cipher that are used by WEP to encrypt subsequent network traffic. What authentication mechanism is being followed here? 

A. no authentication 

B. single key authentication 

C. shared key authentication 

D. open system authentication 

Answer:

Explantion: The following picture shows how the WEP authentication procedure: 


Q254. You are scanning the target network for the first time. You are able to detect few convention open ports. While attempting to perform conventional service identification by connecting to the open ports, the scan yields either bad or no result. As you are unsure of the protocols in use, you want to discover as many different protocols as possible. Which of the following scan options can help you achieve this? 

A. Nessus sacn with TCP based pings 

B. Netcat scan with the switches 

C. Nmap scan with the P (ping scan) switch 

D. Nmap with the O (Raw IP Packets switch 

Answer: D

Explanation: -sO IP protocol scans: This method is used to determine which IP protocols are supported on a host. The technique is to send raw IP packets without any further protocol header to each specified protocol on the target machine. If we receive an ICMP protocol unreachable message, then the protocol is not in use. Otherwise we assume it is open. Note that some hosts (AIX, HP-UX, Digital UNIX) and firewalls may not send protocol unreachable messages. 


Q255. Which of the following systems would not respond correctly to an nmap XMAS scan? 

A. Windows 2000 Server running IIS 5 

B. Any Solaris version running SAMBA Server 

C. Any version of IRIX 

D. RedHat Linux 8.0 running Apache Web Server 

Answer: A

Explanation: When running a XMAS Scan, if a RST packet is received, the port is considered closed, while no response means it is open|filtered. The big downside is that not all systems follow RFC 793 to the letter. A number of systems send RST responses to the probes regardless of whether the port is open or not. This causes all of the ports to be labeled closed. Major operating systems that do this are Microsoft Windows, many Cisco devices, BSDI, and IBM OS/400. 


Q256. Jack Hacker wants to break into Brown Co.'s computers and obtain their secret double fudge cookie recipe. Jack calls Jane, an accountant at Brown Co., pretending to be an administrator from Brown Co. Jack tells Jane that there has been a problem with some accounts and asks her to tell him her password 'just to double check our records'. Jane believes that Jack is really an administrator, and tells him her password. Jack now has a user name and password, and can access Brown Co.'s computers, to find the cookie recipe. This is an example of what kind of attack? 

A. Reverse Psychology 

B. Social Engineering 

C. Reverse Engineering 

D. Spoofing Identity 

E. Faking Identity 

Answer: B

Explanation: This is a typical case of pretexting. Pretexting is the act of creating and using an invented scenario (the pretext) to persuade a target to release information or perform an action and is usually done over the telephone. 


Q257. A specific site received 91 ICMP_ECHO packets within 90 minutes from 47 different sites. 77 of the ICMP_ECHO packets had an ICMP ID:39612 and Seq:57072. 13 of the ICMP_ECHO packets had an ICMP ID:0 and Seq:0. What can you infer from this information? 

A. The packets were sent by a worm spoofing the IP addresses of 47 infected sites B. ICMP ID and Seq numbers were most likely set by a tool and not by the operating system 

C. All 77 packets came from the same LAN segment and hence had the same ICMP ID and Seq number 

D. 13 packets were from an external network and probably behind a NAT, as they had an ICMP ID 0 and Seq 0 

Answer: B


Q258. The following excerpt is taken from a honeypot log. The log captures activities across three days. There are several intrusion attempts; however, a few are successful. From the options given below choose the one best interprets the following entry: 

Apr 26 06:43:05 [6282] IDS181/nops-x86: 63.226.81.13:1351 -> 172.16.1.107:53 

(Note: The objective of this question is to test whether the student can read basic information from log entries and interpret the nature of attack.) 

Interpret the following entry: 

Apr 26 06:43:05 [6283]: IDS181/nops-x86: 63.226.81.13:1351 -> 172.16.1.107.53 

A. An IDS evasion technique 

B. A buffer overflow attempt 

C. A DNS zone transfer 

D. Data being retrieved from 63.226.81.13. 

Answer: B

Explanation: The IDS log file is depicting numerous attacks, however, most of them are from different attackers, in reference to the attack in question, he is trying to mask his activity by trying to act legitimate, during his session on the honeypot, he changes users two times by using the "su" command, but never triess to attempt anything to severe. 


Q259. Why would an ethical hacker use the technique of firewalking? 

A. It is a technique used to discover wireless network on foot. 

B. It is a technique used to map routers on a network link. 

C. It is a technique used to discover the nature of rules configured on a gateway. 

D. It is a technique used to discover interfaces in promiscuous mode. 

Answer: C

Explanation: Firewalking uses a traceroute-like IP packet analysis to determine whether or not a particular packet can pass from the attacker’s host to a destination host through a packet-filtering device. This technique can be used to map ‘open’ or ‘pass through’ ports on a gateway. More over, it can determine whether packets with various control information can pass through a given gateway. 


Q260. While scanning a network you observe that all of the web servers in the DMZ are responding to ACK packets on port 80. 

What can you infer from this observation? 

A. They are using Windows based web servers. 

B. They are using UNIX based web servers. 

C. They are not using an intrusion detection system. 

D. They are not using a stateful inspection firewall. 

Answer: D

Explanation: If they used a stateful inspection firewall this firewall would know if there has been a SYN-ACK before the ACK.
