Selected Answer: C
DNS poisoning involves injecting false information into a Domain Name System (DNS) resolver cache, which directs users to the wrong website when they try to access a domain. This attack can affect a large number of users if the DNS server is compromised or if a cache poisoning attack is successful. Since the user has used the shortcut many times before, and it suddenly started showing discrepancies, it's likely that the DNS cache was recently poisoned, redirecting the user to a different, malicious website.
