T1083 File and Directory Discovery Discovery
Adversaries may enumerate files and directories or may search in specific locations of a host or network share for certain information within a file system.
T1213 Data from Information Repositories Collection
Adversaries may leverage information repositories to mine valuable information.
Why these techniques?

Improper access control allows unauthorized listing of all prompts via /api/v1/prompts/ (T1083: File and Directory Discovery) and retrieval of arbitrary admin prompt content via /api/v1/prompts/command/{command_id} (T1213: Data from Information Repositories).
