Comment:

 Selfupdate involves downloading a the latest tarballs of MacPorts base and
 the ports tree with rsync, then installing base if outdated, which is
 essentially just a typical `./configure && make && make install`. I don't
 know what Crowdstrike considers a "data dump" so it's hard to say what
 might have triggered it. There was another ticket about Crowdstrike, where
 it didn't like the installer script examining and updating the `macports`
 unprivileged user account that we use for running builds: #66878
