Modifying access logs sounds risky, but I can't recall if that's a common threat model. Maybe option D is less likely?

I practiced a similar question where data exfiltration was a concern, so option C could also be a possibility.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think a DoS attack could impact availability, so option A might be relevant too.

I'm feeling pretty confident about this one. Based on the information provided, I believe the correct answer is option B - an attacker can read or change the data.

I think the best approach here is to consider the different ways an attacker could potentially compromise the database, like unauthorized access, data manipulation, or denial of service attacks.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. Can the attacker do multiple things, or is it just one specific threat we need to identify?

Okay, let's see here. The key seems to be identifying the potential threats to the SQL database given the two types of clients accessing the system.
