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?

SQL injection in public-facing web app (/book_car.php) directly enables remote exploitation of the application without auth or interaction, matching T1190.

Mitigating Controls

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

prevent

Directly prevents SQL injection by requiring validation of untrusted inputs like the 'fname' parameter in /book_car.php.

prevent

Requires timely identification, reporting, and correction of the specific SQL injection flaw in the Parameter Handler component.

preventdetect

Boundary protection with web application firewalls can inspect and block SQL injection payloads targeting the 'fname' argument remotely.
