Seems too simple for a real attack, right?

I thought Denial-of-Service Attack was more about overwhelming a server? This seems more like XSS, but I’m still a bit confused.

Definitely feels like a Cross-site Scripting Attack to me. The alert message in the script tag is a classic example.

I'm not entirely sure, but it seems like it could also be an SQL Injection Attack? I remember something about code being inserted, but this looks different.

I think this is a Cross-site Scripting Attack since the attacker is injecting a script into the URL. It reminds me of a practice question we did on XSS.

Wait, I'm a little confused. I thought the traffic-table was more for monitoring and analyzing traffic, not for actually setting the parameters. I'll need to double-check my notes to make sure I'm remembering this correctly.

Hmm, I'm not entirely sure about the answer here. I'll need to think through the different options and try to eliminate the ones that don't seem right.
