A honey pot deployed with the IP 172.16.1.108 was compromised by an attacker. Given below is an excerpt from a Snort binary capture of the
attack. Decipher the activity carried out by the attacker by studying the log. Please note that you are required to infer only what is explicit in the
excerpt.
(Note: The student is being tested on concepts learnt during passive OS +ngerprinting, basic TCP/IP connection concepts and the ability to read
packet signatures from a sniff dump.)
