MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

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.
attack.mitre.org →
T1211 Exploitation for Stealth Stealth
Adversaries may exploit vulnerabilities to evade detection by hiding activity, suppressing logging, or operating within trusted or unmonitored components.
attack.mitre.org →
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 allows admins to inject JS payloads bypassing unfiltered_html restrictions, enabling public-facing web app exploitation (T1190), defense evasion via capability bypass (T1211), and client-side web session cookie theft when users view the chatbot (T1539).
