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.
T1046 Network Service Discovery Discovery
Adversaries may attempt to get a listing of services running on remote hosts and local network infrastructure devices, including those that may be vulnerable to remote software exploitation.
T1498 Network Denial of Service Impact
Adversaries may perform Network Denial of Service (DoS) attacks to degrade or block the availability of targeted resources to users.
Why these techniques?

SSRF via Referer Handler enables exploitation of public-facing web application (T1190), allows probing internal/external hosts for network service discovery (T1046), and facilitates DoS/DDoS by forcing server-sent HEAD requests to arbitrary targets (T1498).
