PowerShell Security Improvements

Entry
JSON All of v2.1.90
EntryKind: in v2.1.90,
ChangesSection of the release
  • Background job operator (&) detection: PowerShell commands using the & operator now trigger a security prompt with the message "Command uses the background job operator (&) which spawns a child PowerShell process" (search for "background job operator").
  • Remove-Item -Recurse safety: Deleting the working directory (including .git and .claude) via Remove-Item -Recurse now requires manual approval (search for "Remove-Item -Recurse targeting").
  • Action parameter validation: PowerShell common parameters like -ErrorAction, -WarningAction (and their aliases -ea, -wa, etc.) are now validated to ensure they use expected values (SilentlyContinue, Stop, Continue, Ignore), preventing abuse of these parameters.
Evidence

PowerShell AST parser (search for "hasBackgroundJob" and "background job operator")

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