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.
Why these techniques?

SSRF vulnerability in public-facing SharePoint directly enables exploitation of the application to disclose internal information.

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Enforces information flow policies to block the server from initiating unauthorized outbound requests to internal resources via SSRF.

prevent

Validates all URL and request inputs to reject malicious external or internal targets that enable SSRF information disclosure.

prevent

Restricts outbound network connections from the SharePoint server, limiting the destinations reachable through an SSRF exploit.
