English term or phrase: several ends
The sentence is "An attacker can use maliciously coded JavaScript from within Internet Explorer to achieve several ends".
I am looking for equivalent japanese phrase rather than the literal translation for the word "several ends"

複数にわたる（or いくつもの）目的を達成する、
Explanation:
When I see the given context, this is my best shot.
Afterall what the hacker (attacker) wants is to achieve his(her) malicious goals, right?
Because "to achieve" is not part of your question, so 目的を達成する may not necessarily be a part of answer either. Nonetheless I thought that addition would be helpful to understand my point.
