Hmm, buffer overflow? That's so 90s. I'm feeling a bit more 'modern' today, so I'm gonna go with C. Malware installation FTW!

Hold up, you really think an IoT device with an unprotected shell is only vulnerable to directory harvesting? Come on, that's like the tip of the iceberg. Malware installation all the way, baby!

Directory harvesting? Nah, that's too old-school. I'm going with the rainbow table attacks. Gotta keep up with the latest hacker trends, you know?

I disagree, I think the answer is D) Buffer overflow because it can exploit vulnerabilities in the device's software.

I agree with Lauran, because having unprotected shell access can easily lead to malware installation.
