I think denial of service makes sense here, especially since it mentions the physical server being affected. I just hope I’m not mixing it up with overlapping trust boundaries.

I’m a bit confused because I’ve seen terms like insufficient authorization pop up in other contexts. But this seems more like a load issue.

I remember practicing a similar question where we discussed how resource exhaustion can lead to service unavailability. I feel like the answer is definitely denial of service.

I'm a bit confused by the wording here. Is this really a denial of service attack, or could it be something else like an overlapping trust boundary issue? I'll have to review the concepts to make sure I understand this properly.

A) denial of service. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, it's probably a duck. Or in this case, a very angry, resource-hogging virtual duck.
