title: Dynamic CSharp Compile Artefact
id: e4a74e34-ecde-4aab-b2fb-9112dd01aed0
status: test
description: |
    When C# is compiled dynamically, a .cmdline file will be created as a part of the process.
    Certain processes are not typically observed compiling C# code, but can do so without touching disk.
    This can be used to unpack a payload for execution
