Those problems are solvable. Some "big" EDRs, which happen to work in a similar way, allow to declare the parent/child relationship of the executables to block, i.e. it should be possible to declare that if "curl" is spawned, and if by walking the parent list we encounter a process called "/usr/bin/trusted", then allow this curl invocation. This action would allow running "curl" from bash scripts, as long as the bash script has "/usr/bin/trusted" as a parent.
