Best answer

Correct choice is (c) cross-site scripting

Easy explanation: The cross-site scripting attack is among one of the top five security attacks carried out across the Internet. It is also known as XSS, this attack is a type of code injection attack which is made possible by incorrectly validating user data, which usually gets inserted into the page through a web form or using an altered hyperlink.
