POODLE attack

Target entity: POODLE attack
Context triple: [BEAST attack, relatedTo, POODLE attack]

• A. BEAST attack
  The BEAST attack is a cryptographic exploit that targets vulnerabilities in early versions of TLS/SSL to decrypt secure HTTPS traffic by abusing weaknesses in block cipher modes like CBC.
• B. ROCA
  ROCA is the acronym for the Republic of China Army, the land warfare branch of Taiwan’s armed forces.
• C. Negotiated Finite Field Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral Parameters for Transport Layer Security (TLS)
  "Negotiated Finite Field Diffie-Hellman Ephemeral Parameters for Transport Layer Security (TLS)" is an IETF standard (RFC 7919) that defines secure, standardized finite-field Diffie-Hellman parameter sets for use in TLS to improve cryptographic security and interoperability.
• D. Merkle puzzles
  Merkle puzzles are an early cryptographic protocol that introduced the concept of public-key exchange by allowing two parties to establish a shared secret over an insecure channel using computationally asymmetric “puzzle” problems.
• E. Ettercap
  Ettercap is a network security tool used for sniffing, intercepting, and manipulating traffic on local area networks, commonly employed for man-in-the-middle attacks and protocol analysis.
• F. None of above. chosen
• G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
