What
New allowlists feed the check that decides whether a command is safe to run without prompting: read-only PowerShell cmdlets, PowerShell switch parameters, PowerShell executable paths probed on Windows, and known container and package registry hosts. A separate pattern flags paths mentioning helm, iam, prod, k8s or rbac as sensitive.
Evidence
registry-1\.docker\.io
