What type of attack is also known as a race condition?

A. Synchronous attack

B. Buffer overflow

C. Asynchronous attack

D. Scanlog attack

Solution

C. Asynchronous attacks are sometimes called race conditions because the attacker is racing to make a change to the object after it has been changed but before it has been used by the system. Asynchronous attacks typically target timing. The objective is to exploit the delay between the time of check (TOC) and the time of use (TOU). Answers A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not adequately describe a race condition
