T1059.007 JavaScript Execution
Adversaries may abuse various implementations of JavaScript for execution.
T1190 Exploit Public-Facing Application Initial Access
Adversaries may attempt to exploit a weakness in an Internet-facing host or system to initially access a network.
T1539 Steal Web Session Cookie Credential Access
An adversary may steal web application or service session cookies and use them to gain access to web applications or Internet services as an authenticated user without needing credentials.
Why these techniques?

Stored XSS via malicious HTML file upload enables arbitrary JavaScript execution (T1059.007) in victims' browsers, exploitation of the web application (T1190), and theft of web session cookies (T1539) for unauthorized actions and access.
