Spline is what that type of "grip" is called.

Search for ‘ multi spline tool ‘ or even ‘ triple square tool’ on google you will find a tool ,they come in various sizes like any other socket.

Re: How do I remove tyre repair kit bracket?
As was mentioned above, this socket is commonly called "triple square" but the correct name is "XZN".
You'll need an XZN bit of the correct size to remove it.
