Correct The provided line is an example of a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. In an XSS attack, malicious code is injected into a web application, and when other users view the page containing this code, the injected code is executed in their browsers. In this case, the code attempts to execute a VBScript message box with the text "test".

D, IMG SRC= is HTML and Cross-site scripting (XSS) injects code into a web app

< IMG SRC='vbscript:msgbox("test")' > attempts to inject a VBScript code snippet (vbscript:msgbox("test")) into an HTML IMG tag's source attribute.

I used Google and it verified XSS.

D. Cross-site scripting (XSS) The line you provided is an example of a cross-site scripting (XSS) attempt. In XSS attacks, an attacker injects malicious code, typically JavaScript, into a web application. When this code is executed by a victim's browser, it can perform various actions, such as displaying pop-up messages (as in the "msgbox("test")" part of the code), stealing user data, or performing other malicious activities. In this case, it's attempting to display a message box with the text "test."
