Maybe A, since SQL injections can directly expose sensitive data in cloud apps.

Option C stands out since misconfigured storage is a common cloud-specific mistake causing leaks.

It’s C for me too. Misconfigured cloud storage buckets are a classic cloud-specific vulnerability that leads directly to data exposure. Options like A and D are more generic or tied to on-prem setups, while B is about physical security, which is less likely to cause a data breach in cloud infrastructure. Since the question emphasizes cloud-specific issues, C really stands out as the most plausible cause here.

A/D? Poor app code causing SQL injections (A) is definitely a classic cause of data breaches, even in cloud setups. Outdated firewall rules (D) might let attackers in initially if there’s a hybrid cloud environment. Both could be relevant.

C imo, but also worth noting that outdated on-premises firewall rules (D) could let attackers pivot into the cloud environment if hybrid setups aren’t secured properly. Still, C fits best for direct cloud vulnerabilities.
