Detects outbound network connections initiated by the 'build-script-build' executable, which is the compiled output of a Rust 'build.rs' script. While legitimate build scripts may fetch dependencies, unexpected network activity from this process could indicate malicious code injection during the build process, such as a software supply chain attack attempting to download secondary payloads.
