A Web page with an ".stm" extension is an .HTM file that contains server side includes (SSI). These "includes" are directives that are processed by the Web server when the page is accessed by a user. They are used to generate dynamic content. SSI Web pages can be viewed as a standard HTML page in any browser.

stm In order for a web server to recognize an SSI-enabled HTML file and therefore carry out these instructions, either the filename should end with a special extension, by default .shtml, .stm, .shtm, or, if the server is configured to allow this, set the execution bit of the file https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Side_Includes https://owasp.org/www-community/attacks/Server-Side_Includes_(SSI)_Injection

A is correct. The Server-Side Includes attack allows the exploitation of a web application by injecting scripts in HTML pages or executing arbitrary codes remotely. It can be exploited through manipulation of SSI in use in the application or force its use through user input fields. Another way to discover if the application is vulnerable is to verify the presence of pages with extension .stm, .shtm and .shtml.
