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.
T1485 Data Destruction Impact
Adversaries may destroy data and files on specific systems or in large numbers on a network to interrupt availability to systems, services, and network resources.
T1565.001 Stored Data Manipulation Impact
Adversaries may insert, delete, or manipulate data at rest in order to influence external outcomes or hide activity, thus threatening the integrity of the data.
Why these techniques?

SQL injection in web app endpoint directly enables exploitation of public-facing application (T1190) and facilitates arbitrary DB data manipulation/destruction (T1565.001, T1485).
