Identifies Linux binary cpulimit abuse to break out from restricted environments by spawning an interactive system
shell. The cpulimit utility is used to restrict the CPU usage of a process in cases of CPU or system load exceeding the
defined threshold and the activity of spawning a shell is not a standard use of this binary by a user or system
administrator. This can potentially indicate a malicious actor attempting to improve the capabilities or stability of their
access.
