| ID | Title | Description | External Mappings | Capability Mappings | Control Mappings |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CCC.Vector.TH02 | Embedding and Index Poisoning | Adversaries may insert malicious or adversarial vectors into the index through ingestion endpoints, polluting the dataset and degrading search quality, or subtly steering results toward specific outcomes. | 1 | 1 | 0 |
| CCC.Core.TH12 | Resource Constraints are Exhausted | Exceeding the resource constraints through excessive consumption, resource-intensive operations, or lowering of rate-limit thresholds can impact the availability of elements such as memory, CPU, or storage. This may disrupt availability of the service or child resources by denying the associated functionality to users. If the impacted system is not designed to expect such a failure, the effect could also cascade to other services and resources. | 1 | 1 | 0 |
