Which of the following types of vulnerabilities involves attacking a system to access adjacent hosts?

VM escape allows an attacker to break out of a virtual machine to access the hypervisor or other adjacent virtual machines on the same host, effectively moving laterally to adjacent systems.

Side loading (B) involves loading malicious code in place of legitimate components. Remote code execution (C) allows running arbitrary code remotely. Resource exhaustion (D) causes denial of service by overusing resources.

VM escape is a known virtualization vulnerability detailed in SY0-701【6:Chapter 2†CompTIA Security+ Study Guide】.
