Expert Solution & Answer
Chapter 6, Problem 1RQ
Explanation of Solution
Descriptor:
- The descriptor is nothing but collection of the attributes of a variable.
- It is an area of memory which stores the attributes of a variable in an implementation.
- If the attributes are all static, then the descriptors are required only at compile time. These descriptors are built by the compiler, usually as a part of the symbol table, and are used during compilation.
- For dynamic attributes, all of the descriptor must be maintained during execution. Here, the descriptor is used by the run-time system.
- Generally, it is used for type checking and building the code for the allocation and deallocation operations.

Assume that Oscar can observe all messages sent between Rina and Naseem. Oscar has no knowledge of any keys but the public one, in the case of DS. State whether DS and MAC protect against each attack and, if they do, how. The value auth(x) is computed with a DS or a MAC algorithm. In each scenario, assume the message M = x#####auth(x). (Message integrity) Rina has the textual data x = “Transfer $1000 to Mark” to send to Naseem. To ensure the integrity of the data, Rina generates auth(x), forms a message M, and then sends M in cleartext to Naseem. Oscar intercepts the message and replaces “Mark” with “Oscar.” Will Naseem detect this in the case of either DS or MAC? If yes, how will Naseem detect it? If not, why? (Replay) Rina has the textual data x = “Transfer $1000 to Mark” to send to Naseem.
