Selected Answer: D
The code is displaying signs of a vulnerability known as Improper Neutralization of Script-related HTML tags. This type of vulnerability is usually found in web applications, where user-inputted data is not properly sanitized, leading to code injection attacks. A web application vulnerability scan is specifically designed to find such vulnerabilities by analyzing the application code and input validation, which is why it is most likely that a web application vulnerability scan was used to discover this issue.

Agree - I am thinking D as well. This is a type of XSS, and Web Application scanning would discover this.
