Cipher block chaining can help with that, right?

I’m a bit confused, but I remember that Output Feedback mode also has some vulnerabilities. Still, I lean towards ECB for this question.

I recall practicing a question about encryption modes, and I think ECB was mentioned as being weak. It seems like the right choice here.

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like Cipher Block Chaining mode is more secure against replay attacks since it uses chaining.

I think it might be Electronic Codebook mode because I remember it doesn't use an initialization vector, which could lead to patterns being repeated.
