Why these techniques?

The stored XSS vulnerability enables high-privilege users to inject unsanitized HTML/JavaScript into form fields, which executes client-side for viewers. This facilitates content injection (T1659), browser session hijacking (T1185), and stealing web session cookies (T1539) via classic XSS payloads.
