When I run `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -EncodedCommand "RwBlAHQALQBEAGEAdABlAA=="` at the command prompt, I get `IDP.HELU.PSE25`. But, it doesn't happen when I run `powershell -EncodedCommand "RwBlAHQALQBEAGEAdABlAA=="` or `powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -Command "Get-Date"`.
These commands should have the same result. Is this a bug in the product?
The version of AVG that I am using is as follows Software version: 064d55fe7c10/211217.2031+0900 Virus definitions version: 211217-0 Number of definitions: 27,056,990 UI version: 1.0.643
The full text of the message displayed is as follows. Threat secured We've blocked powershell.exe because it was infected with IDP.HELU.PSE25 - Command line detection
