critical LNK_POWERSHELL_BIGINT_NETWORK_ENDPOINT

What it means

A shortcut reconstructs a downloader endpoint from large integer arithmetic.

Why it fires

The PowerShell arguments subtract large integer constants and repeatedly take remainder/divide by 256 to rebuild endpoint bytes before passing them to a network retrieval primitive. Detection is bounded and requires the complete arithmetic loop, a valid domain/path result, a script interpreter, and a downloader command.
