Cross-site scripting, no doubt about it. You inject those nasty scripts and then you're in control of their poor little browser. Classic move!

Haha, B is the way to go! Cross-site scripting, the good old script-injection trick. Classic way to mess with people's browsers.

B is definitely the correct answer. Cross-site scripting is the vulnerability that allows you to take over the user's browser. SQL injection is a different type of attack.

I think B is the answer. Cross-site scripting is where you try to hijack the client's browser by injecting malicious scripts. Sounds like the description in the question.

Cross-site scripting for sure! That's the one where you inject scripts into web apps to take control of the client's browser, right?

I think it's SQL injection. That's when you insert malicious SQL code into a web app to manipulate the database.
