Refer to the exhibit. What is the script trying to accomplish?
The correct answer is A. Initiate a connection to 23.1.4.14 over port 8443. The script dynamically builds an HTTPS opener that skips certificate validation, then fetches data from https://23.1.4.14:8443/..., decodes and decompresses it, and executes the resulting payload, demonstrating its reaching out to that host and port to pull and run code.
