The exhibit shows multipleARP reply packetswith the same IP addresses (192.168.51.105and192.168.51.201) being mapped todifferent MAC addresses, which triggers the message: "duplicate use of [IP] detected". This is a strong indicator of anARP spoofing(or poisoning) attack.

ARP spoofing occurs when a malicious actor sends falsified ARP messages to associate their MAC address with the IP address of another host. This misleads other devices on the network and allows interception or redirection of traffic.

The Cisco CyberOps Associate guide specifically recommendsconfiguring port securityon switches as a method tomitigate ARP spoofing, by limiting the number of MAC addresses allowed per port or statically assigning legitimate MAC addresses to switch ports.

This STIX (Structured Threat Information eXpression) JSON snippet provides two key elements relevant for IOC (Indicator of Compromise) analysis:

The indicator pattern shows a suspicious URL:→ "pattern": "[url:value = This is the actual IOC that can be used for detection.

The type of object that the indicator relates to:→ "type": "malware"→ "name": "x4z9arb backdoor"This indicates the nature of the threat associated with the IOC is malware.

Therefore, the threat is "malware" and the associated indicator (IOC) is the URL:

Option A correctly captures both the IOC category ("malware") and the indicator value

To determine the correct script, we evaluate the following requirements:

The script must search for the IP address 192.168.100.100.

The output should be written to a file named parsed_host.log.

The matching lines should be printed to the console.

Analysis of the options:

Option A: Correct IP regex used and correct output filename, but reads from parsed_host.log instead of a source log file like test_log.log (not ideal for initial parsing).

Option C: The IP address used is 192.168.100.101 instead of 192.168.100.100 — incorrect.

Option D: Same IP address and logic as Option B, but uses print statement without parentheses, which is not valid in Python 3 unless using Python 2 — not ideal.

✅Option B:

Uses correct IP: "192.168.100.100"

Reads from test_log.log (presumably the source log file).

Writes to output/parsed_host.log.

Prints each matching line and writes to output file — satisfying all conditions.
