AML.T0053

Exploitation for Privilege Escalation

Adversaries may exploit software vulnerabilities to escalate privileges in AI systems.

Examples:

  • •Exploiting AI system vulnerabilities
  • •Abusing model access controls
  • •Manipulating AI service permissions

Mitigations:

  • ✓Regular security updates
  • ✓Principle of least privilege
  • ✓Vulnerability management
