MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1005 Data from Local System Collection
Adversaries may search local system sources, such as file systems, configuration files, local databases, virtual machine files, or process memory, to find files of interest and sensitive data prior to Exfiltration.
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?

CWE-201 info disclosure in public web plugin directly enables remote retrieval of local sensitive data (T1005) via exploitation of a public-facing application (T1190).

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly filters sensitive data from being inserted into application outputs/responses, preventing the exact exposure described by CWE-201.

prevent

Enforces information flow policies that block unauthorized sensitive data from being transmitted to clients or external parties.

prevent

Enforces access decisions so that only explicitly authorized data elements are released in booking responses or API replies.

prevents

Data-masking techniques can prevent sensitive values from appearing in transmitted payloads.

mitigates

Classification identifies sensitive data so it is not inadvertently transmitted.

mitigates

Labelling makes sensitive data visible to developers and prevents accidental inclusion in outbound messages.

mitigates

Information-transfer rules directly govern what data may be sent to external parties.

mitigates

PII-protection requirements reduce the chance of sending personal data to unauthorized recipients.

mitigates

DLP controls inspect and block outbound flows that contain sensitive information.
