C? Is that a joke? Classifying it as malware or a DoS attack? That's like trying to put a Band-Aid on a gunshot wound. Not very helpful, if you ask me.

Haha, I love how options C and D are just completely absurd. It's like the exam writer was having a bad day and decided to mess with us. But hey, at least it's keeping us on our toes!

D? Seriously? That's like waving the white flag before the battle even starts. I think I need to have a serious chat with whoever came up with that option.

B? Really? Adding it to the CVE database is important, but it doesn't actually fix the problem. Come on, people, let's be proactive here!

Definitely A. I once had a vulnerability that I ignored, and the next thing I knew, my entire network was down for a week. Learned my lesson the hard way!

I agree with Lisbeth. Applying fixes is the way to go. I just hope the patches don't break anything else in the process. Murphy's Law and all that, you know?
