Selected Answer: C
host 3 needs to be patched first based on the fact that it's actively being exploited, it's a high value target, and the vulnerability gives the attacker remote code execution on the system. However, it is just 4 hosts - just patch them all.

Selected Answer: C
agree with C. Between host 2 and 3, host 3 is a high value target and has remote code execution vulnerability. Host 2 has DoS vulnerability and no auth required. Host 3 seems to be in a more critical state.
