Alice visits a popular news website and sees a pop-up that says "Hacked!". Upon investigation, it's found that the website itself was not compromised but the script from an ad provider was. What kind of attack was most likely leveraged?

  • Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF)
  • Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
  • Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS)
  • SQL Injection
Alice likely experienced a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attack, where malicious code was injected into the ad provider's script, affecting the website's visitors.
