I'm going with B) Man-in-the-middle as well. I mean, it's like Eric is the bouncer at a party, checking everyone's credentials and then letting them in. Except, you know, without the party and with a lot more hacking involved.

Definitely B) Man-in-the-middle. Eric is essentially inserting himself into the communication channel and acting as a proxy between the two parties. This is textbook MITM.

I think the correct answer is B) Man-in-the-middle. Eric is intercepting and relaying the communication between the two entities without their knowledge, which is a classic man-in-the-middle attack.
