This is a classic case of 'when in doubt, read the documentation'. The vsftpd configuration is the key to answering this question.

Option D is definitely wrong. Using the root user for anonymous FTP would be a major security risk.

Hmm, option C doesn't seem right. The user that anonymously logged in wouldn't necessarily be the one used for file system operations.

I'm not sure about this one. I thought the Linux user that owns the root FTP directory might be used, but the question specifically asks about the user that performs file system operations.

Option E seems the most likely answer. The configuration option ftp_username should specify the Linux user that vsftpd uses for anonymous FTP users.

In that case, I believe vsftpd uses the Linux user which runs the vsftpd process.
