A penetration tester obtained the following results after scanning a web server using the dirb utility: Which of the following elements is MOST likely to contain useful information for the penetration tester?
about, not only due to the code but mainly due to the size of the file, the others are equal to each other, which indicates a template or standard info only.
This is what I think as a web developer. It is "A" not just because its a great place to start and the size just shows it will MOST likely to contain useful information, The other pages if you realized are all same size 214kb. This makes me think that all this 3 pages are default empty pages and empty pages do take some little space
C. info
The reason "info" stands out as the most likely to contain useful information for the penetration tester is that it deviates from the typical web page names like "index.html," "home.html," and "about.html" that are commonly found and generally less likely to contain sensitive information. The "info" endpoint could potentially contain information that is not meant to be public or could be more easily exploited. It would be a good starting point for further investigation.
An 'about' page is a webpage on a website that provides information about the site and its purpose. It typically contains contact information, background information, a company mission statement, and other details about the organization or individual behind the website. An about page can be used to help visitors learn more about the organization and its goals.
A. index.html
Explanation:
The dirb utility is a web content scanner that is used to enumerate the files and directories on a web server by brute-force guessing the names of files and directories. The output of the scan shows that the scanner has generated 4612 words and found 4 files on the web server, including index.html, home.html, info and about. The penetration tester will examine the contents of these files to find any vulnerabilities or sensitive information that can be used to exploit the web server.
The most likely file to contain useful information for the penetration tester is the index.html file. This file is typically the default file that is displayed when a user visits a website, and it can contain information such as the website's title, description, and links to other pages on the site. The tester will review the contents of this file to see if it contains any vulnerabilities or sensitive information that can be used to exploit the web server.
