Question
A penetration tester needs to test a very large number of URLs for public access. Given the following code snippet:
```python
1 import requests
2 import pathlib
3
4 for url in pathlib.Path("urls.txt").read_text().split("\n"):
5 response = requests.get(url)
6 if response.status == 401:
7 print("URL accessible")
```
Which of the following changes is required?
- A. The condition on line 6 Correct
- B. The method on line 5
- C. The import on line 1
- D. The delimiter in line 3
Explanation
HTTP 401 means Unauthorized, so the script reports exactly the URLs that are not publicly accessible; the condition on line 6 must check for success instead, for example response.status_code == 200 (the Requests library exposes the code as status_code). requests.get on line 5 is the right method for fetching each URL, the requests import is needed, and splitting the file on newlines correctly yields one URL per line.
