@PaulHigin can you refresh your review? |

This seems like it would be a breaking change.... this change appears to make it so you cannot use |
It is a bug fix - no one can disable the lock set by a system administrator. |

Does this being a bugfix effect whether it's a breaking change? https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/blob/master/docs/dev-process/breaking-change-contract.md
This would seem to me to be a bucket 2/3 change which previously has required a breaking change conversation even when related to bug fixes: #12766 (comment) |

@strawgate Any bug fix could be considered as a breaking change :-) This is a security related bug fix - such things are never discussed publicly (it is Microsoft policy). |

@strawgate I've marked the issue a breaking change. As @iSazonov has said, AppLocker is considered the security feature with the stronger promise here. Execution policy was never intended as a bypass. See our security policy: https://github.com/PowerShell/PowerShell/security/policy
FYI, this scenario was is even a corner case of AppLocker, where you only have Deny rules and constrained language mode is not used to enforce the policy. |
