Summary

In Devolutions PowerShell Universal 2026.2.2 and earlier, the variables feature stores secret values in cleartext on disk when no vault is selected. A local attacker with file system access can read these secrets.

Risk Assessment

Storing secrets in cleartext allows a local attacker to steal sensitive data like passwords or API keys, potentially leading to further attacks.

Recommendation

Update Devolutions PowerShell Universal to a version newer than 2026.2.2 that stores secrets securely, or configure a vault for secret variables.
