"); gets (place); printf("The best place to learn network security is %s ", place); system (systemcommand); } Figure Q2(b): Program code (i) State the attack of the above program code. [1 mark] (ii) Explain how the system can be exploited by this code with an aid of a diagram. [6 marks] (iii) Show the solution how to avoid the attack.
