What

When an admin policy helper is delivered as an inline script, the child process environment is stripped before it runs. On Windows the PowerShell binary is resolved only from a fixed list of absolute install locations on C:, never from PATH.

Details
  • The sh path runs with a fixed PATH and LC_ALL=C after deleting ENV, BASH_ENV, LD_, DYLD_ and similar variables.
  • The pwsh path rebuilds PSModulePath, PATH, PATHEXT and COMSPEC, and drops DOTNET_, COMPLUS_ and COR_ variables.
  • If no stock PowerShell install is found, the helper fails rather than falling back to a PATH lookup.
Evidence

PowerShell not found at any of its stock install locations on C: (fixed absolute candidates only; PATH is never consulted)

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
