ARP spoofing is a technique whereby an attacker sends fake ("spoofed") Address Resolution Protocol
(ARP) messages onto a Local Area Network. Generally, the aim is to associate the attacker's MAC
address with the IP address of another host (such as the default gateway), causing any traffic meant
for that IP address to be sent to the attacker instead.
ARP spoofing attack is used as an opening for other attacks.
What type of attack would you launch after successfully deploying ARP spoofing?

Q: 11
The Web parameter tampering attack is based on the manipulation of parameters exchanged
between client and server in order to modify application data, such as user credentials and
permissions, price and quantity of products, etc.
Usually, this information is stored in cookies, hidden form fields, or URL Query Strings, and is used to
increase application functionality and control. This attack takes advantage of the fact that many
programmers rely on hidden or fixed fields (such as a hidden tag in a form or a parameter in a URL) as
the only security measure for certain operations.
Attackers can easily modify these parameters to bypass the security mechanisms that rely on them.
What is the best way to protect web applications from parameter tampering attacks?
