GAQM CPEH-001 Exam - Topic 6 Question 77 Discussion

Actual exam question for GAQM's CPEH-001 exam
Question #: 77
Topic #: 6
[All CPEH-001 Questions]

Which of the following LM hashes represents a password of less than 8 characters?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Canaries or canary words are known values that are placed between a buffer and control data on the stack to monitor buffer overflows. When the buffer overflows, it will clobber the canary, making the overflow evident. This is a reference to the historic practice of using canaries in coal mines, since they would be affected by toxic gases earlier than the miners, thus providing a biological warning system.

I thought that any LM hash starting with certain characters might indicate a shorter password, but I can't remember the specifics.

I think I practiced a question like this before, and I remember that LM hashes can only represent passwords up to 14 characters, but I’m confused about how to identify the shorter ones.

I remember that LM hashes are generated from passwords, but I’m not sure how to tell which ones are from passwords shorter than 8 characters.

I've got an idea - I'll try to find the shortest hash value and see if that corresponds to a password less than 8 characters.

I'm pretty confident I know the answer to this one. The Send Outlook Message action in StudioX definitely lets you configure the attachments, subject, and email recipients.
