Q61. How does traceroute map the route a packet travels from point A to point B? 

A. Uses a TCP timestamp packet that will elicit a time exceeded in transit message 

B. Manipulates the value of the time to live (TTL) within packet to elicit a time exceeded in transit message 

C. Uses a protocol that will be rejected by gateways on its way to the destination 

D. Manipulates the flags within packets to force gateways into generating error messages 

Answer: B


Q62. Bob, an Administrator at company was furious when he discovered that his buddy Trent, has launched a session hijack attack against his network, and sniffed on his communication, including administrative tasks suck as configuring routers, firewalls, IDS, via Telnet. 

Bob, being an unhappy administrator, seeks your help to assist him in ensuring that attackers such as Trent will not be able to launch a session hijack in company. 

Based on the above scenario, please choose which would be your corrective measurement actions (Choose two) 

A. Use encrypted protocols, like those found in the OpenSSH suite. 

B. Implement FAT32 filesystem for faster indexing and improved performance. 

C. Configure the appropriate spoof rules on gateways (internal and external). 

D. Monitor for CRP caches, by using IDS products. 

Answer: AC

Explanation: First you should encrypt the data passed between the parties; in particular the session key. This technique is widely relied-upon by web-based banks and other e-commerce services, because it completely prevents sniffing-style attacks. However, it could still be possible to perform some other kind of session hijack. By configuring the appropriate spoof rules you prevent the attacker from using the same IP address as the victim as thus you can implement secondary check to see that the IP does not change in the middle of the session. 


Q63. In order to attack wireless network, you put up an access point and override the signal of the real access point. And when users send authentication data, you are able to capture it. What kind of attack is this? 

A. WEP Attack 

B. Drive by hacking 

C. Rogue Access Point Attack 

D. Unauthorized Access Point Attack 

Answer: C

Explanation: A rogue access point is a wireless access point that has either been installed on a secure company network without explicit authorization from a local network management or has been created to allow a cracker to conduct a man-in-the-middle attack. 


Q64. Theresa is the chief information security officer for her company, a large shipping company based out of New York City. In the past, Theresa and her IT employees manually checked the status of client computers on the network to see if they had the most recent Microsoft updates. Now that the company has added over 100 more clients to accommodate new departments, Theresa must find some kind of tool to see whether the clients are up-to-date or not. Theresa decides to use Qfecheck to monitor all client computers. When Theresa runs the tool, she is repeatedly told that the software does not have the proper permissions to scan. Theresa is worried that the operating system hardening that she performs on all clients is keeping the software from scanning the necessary registry keys on the client computers. 

What registry key permission should Theresa check to ensure that Qfecheck runs properly? 

A. In order for Qfecheck to run properly, it must have enough permission to read 

B. She needs to check the permissions of the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Updates registry key 

C. Theresa needs to look over the permissions of the registry key 

D. The registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Microsoft must be checked 

Answer: B

Explanation: Qfecheck check the registry HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Updates 


Q65. Attackers send an ACK probe packet with random sequence number, no response means port is filtered (Stateful firewall is present) and RST response means the port is not filtered. What type of Port Scanning is this? 

A. RST flag scanning 

B. FIN flag scanning 

C. SYN flag scanning 

D. ACK flag scanning 

Answer: D


Renewal 312-50 exam question:

Q66. The programmers on your team are analyzing the free, open source software being used to run FTP services on a server. They notice that there is an excessive number of fgets() and gets() on the source code. These C++ functions do not check bounds. 

What kind of attack is this program susceptible to? 

A. Buffer of Overflow 

B. Denial of Service 

C. Shatter Attack 

D. Password Attack 

Answer: A

Explanation: C users must avoid using dangerous functions that do not check bounds unless they've ensured that the bounds will never get exceeded. A buffer overflow occurs when you write a set of values (usually a string of characters) into a fixed length buffer and write at least one value outside that buffer's boundaries (usually past its end). A buffer overflow can occur when reading input from the user into a buffer, but it can also occur during other kinds of processing in a program. 


Q67. Which of the following Trojans would be considered 'Botnet Command Control Center'? 

A. YouKill DOOM 

B. Damen Rock 

C. Poison Ivy D. Matten Kit 

Answer: C


Q68. Fake Anti-Virus, is one of the most frequently encountered and persistent threats on the web. This malware uses social engineering to lure users into infected websites with a technique called Search Engine Optimization. 

Once the Fake AV is downloaded into the user's computer, the software will scare them into believing their system is infected with threats that do not really exist, and then push users to purchase services to clean up the non-existent threats. 

The Fake AntiVirus will continue to send these annoying and intrusive alerts until a payment is made. 

What is the risk of installing Fake AntiVirus? 

A. Victim's Operating System versions, services running and applications installed will be published on Blogs and Forums 

B. Victim's personally identifiable information such as billing address and credit card details, may be extracted and exploited by the attacker 

C. Once infected, the computer will be unable to boot and the Trojan will attempt to format the hard disk 

D. Denial of Service attack will be launched against the infected computer crashing other machines on the connected network 

Answer: B


Q69. While doing fast scan using –F option, which file is used to list the range of ports to scan by nmap? 

A. services 

B. nmap-services 

C. protocols 

D. ports 

Answer: B

Explanation: Nmap uses the nmap-services file to provide additional port detail for almost every scanning method. Every time a port is referenced, it's compared to an available description in this support file. If the nmap-services file isn't available, nmap reverts to the /etc/services file applicable for the current operating system. 


Q70. What sequence of packets is sent during the initial TCP three-way handshake? 

A. SYN, URG, ACK 

B. FIN, FIN-ACK, ACK 

C. SYN, ACK, SYN-ACK 

D. SYN, SYN-ACK, ACK 

Answer: D

Explanation: This is referred to as a "three way handshake." The "SYN" flags are requests by the TCP stack at one end of a socket to synchronize themselves to the sequence numbering for this new sessions. The ACK flags acknowlege earlier packets in this session. Obviously only the initial packet has no ACK flag, since there are no previous packets to acknowlege. Only the second packet (the first response from a server to a client) has both the SYN and the ACK bits set.
