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.
T1213.006 Databases Collection
Adversaries may leverage databases to mine valuable information.
T1565.001 Stored Data Manipulation Impact
Adversaries may insert, delete, or manipulate data at rest in order to influence external outcomes or hide activity, thus threatening the integrity of the data.
T1485 Data Destruction Impact
Adversaries may destroy data and files on specific systems or in large numbers on a network to interrupt availability to systems, services, and network resources.
Why these techniques?

Unauthenticated SQL injection in public-facing web app (signUp.php) enables arbitrary SQL execution for initial access via public-facing app exploitation (T1190), data collection from databases (T1213.006), stored data manipulation (T1565.001), and data destruction (T1485) through stacked queries, dumps, and modifications.
