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.
Why these techniques?

Blind SQL injection in a public-facing WordPress plugin directly enables T1190 (Exploit Public-Facing Application) for unauthenticated network exploitation and facilitates T1213.006 (Data from Information Repositories: Databases) via blind SQL techniques to extract sensitive database contents.
