Description

Searching for shorter phrases is causing unexpected search results.

For instance, the phrase "QR" is present in T1598.003, but searching for it does not produce any results. In contrast, using a longer string like "QR codes" or "these QR codes" returns the mentioned technique as a search result.

This does not appear to happen for other one or two-letter searches.

Research direction

Reproduce the issue by searching for "QR", then compare the results with "QR codes" and "these QR codes" on the MITRE ATT&CK website. Trace the website's search entry point to determine why this one- or two-letter query misses T1598.003, and consider the issue done when "QR" returns that technique without breaking other short searches.
