-description: Execute commands and binaries from the context of "forfiles". This is used as a LOLBIN for example to bypass application whitelisting.
+description: |
+    Detects the execution of "forfiles" with the "/c" flag.
+    While this is an expected behavior of the tool, it can be abused in order to proxy execution through it with any binary.
