18A video-game developer has received reports of players who are cheating. All game players each have five capabilities that are ranked on a scale of 1 to 10 points, with 10 total points available for balance. Players can move these points between capabilities at any time. The programming logic is as follows:
• A player asks to move points from one capability to another
•. The source capability must have enough points to allow the move
•. The destination capability must not exceed 10 after the move
•. The move from source capability to destination capability is then completed
The timestamps of the game logs show each step of the transfer process takes about 900ms However,
the timestamps of the cheating players show capability transfers at the exact same time. The cheating
players have 10 points in multiple capabilities.
Which of the following is MOST likely being exploited to allow these capability transfers?- ATOC/TOU
- BCSRF
- CMemory leak
- DXSS
- ESQL injection
- FInteger overflow

✑ The RADIUS server is configured to require the HOTP service for authentication.
The configuration is successfully tested using a software supplicant and enforced across all network devices. Network administrators report they are unable to log onto the network devices because they are not being prompted for the second factor.
Which of the following should be implemented to BEST resolve the issue?- AReplace the password requirement with the second factor. Network administrators will enter their username and then enter the token in place of their password in the password field.
- BConfigure the RADIUS server to accept the second factor appended to the password. Network administrators will enter a password followed by their token in the password field.
- CReconfigure network devices to prompt for username, password, and a token. Network administrators will enter their username and password, and then they will enter the token.
