Windows LAN Manager (LM) hashes are known to be weak. Which of the following are known weaknesses of LM? (Choose three.)

LM hashes convert all passwords to uppercase before hashing, effectively reducing the possible character set and making dictionary and brute-force attacks much easier and faster.

Historically, in some legacy protocols using LM authentication, the LM hashes were transmitted in a way that allowed easy interception and offline cracking, often referred to as being 'sent in clear text' due to their extreme vulnerability to sniffing.

LM hashes internally use a variant of the DES (Data Encryption Standard) algorithm, which is a 56-bit key algorithm, not 32-bit encryption; the statement is technically incorrect regarding the underlying cryptographic strength.

The LM hashing algorithm processes passwords in two 7-character blocks; therefore, it effectively limits the 'strength' of any password to a maximum of 7 characters, regardless of its actual length beyond that.
