T1059.007 JavaScript Execution
Adversaries may abuse various implementations of JavaScript for execution.
T1505.003 Web Shell Persistence
Adversaries may backdoor web servers with web shells to establish persistent access to systems.
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.
Why these techniques?

Reflected XSS (CVE-2024-55416) enables JavaScript execution (T1059.007) via malicious links targeting authenticated users, exploiting a public-facing admin panel (T1190). Chained with arbitrary file write via MIME bypass (CVE-2024-55417) using polyglot files, facilitates web shell deployment (T1100) for RCE.
