B. XXE (XML External Entity) Explanation: The code in the image is an example of an XML document type definition (DTD) that declares an external entity called trustme with a system identifier pointing to a local file (/etc/passwd). The attacker is attempting to exploit an XXE vulnerability that allows for an external entity to be defined and then used within the XML parser. If the parser is misconfigured and allows for external entities to be processed, it could lead to the disclosure of sensitive files on the server, denial of service, server side request forgery, or even the execution of arbitrary code in some cases. Characteristics: Typically involves the retrieval of data from the server, interacting with any back-end or external systems that the web server itself can access, and can often be used to perform DOS attacks or run arbitrary code.
