Hi Team,

I am able see the following warning in one of my workflow : "Allowing arbitrary command for pre-processing is a security concern".

Please provide your thoughts to fix the warning.

Hi Gangadhar,

This is related to security enhancement from the 19.1 release onwards. You can no longer insert arbitrary commands when using the Pre-process the file option in a Data loading (file) workflow activity. A drop-down list is now available allowing you to select from 3 options: None, Decompression (zcat) or Decrypt (gpg). The XtkSecurity_Disable_Preproc security flag has been added. For new customers, this option will be set to 0. For existing customers, this option will be set to 1 by the postupgrade in order to keep the previous behavior. Refer to this section.
