A Correct answer
Explanation

Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) occurs when an application includes untrusted user input in a web page without proper validation or escaping. If the user input is directly echoed back in the response, malicious scripts contained within the input can execute in the victim browser. This makes echoing unvalidated input a primary vector for reflected XSS.
