MITRE ATT&CK Enterprise TechniquesAI

T1505.003 Web Shell Persistence
Adversaries may backdoor web servers with web shells to establish persistent access to systems.
T1547.001 Registry Run Keys / Startup Folder Persistence
Adversaries may achieve persistence by adding a program to a startup folder or referencing it with a Registry run key.
Why these techniques?

Path traversal enables arbitrary file/directory creation outside intended scope, directly facilitating web shell deployment (T1100) or placement of files in autostart locations for persistence (T1547.001).
