Answer is A. https://www.rapid7.com/db/vulnerabilities/HTTP-CISCO-0002/ The problem is in the ability of a user to access the HTTP configuration menu of a Cisco device. A remote user accessing: http://router.address/level/$NUMBER/exec/.... (where $NUMBER is a number in the range of 16 to 99) bypasses all authentication checking. This leads to a remote user gaining a privilege level of 15, which in IOS software is full administrative access (also known as enable). With administrative access, remote attackers may be able to further compromise the network. They may be able to, for example: divert/redirect traffic, possibly monitor traffic, and/or cause a denial of service
