The Horizon Agent must only run allowed scripts on user reconnect.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>The Horizon Agent has the capability to run scripts on user connect, disconnect, and reconnect. While this can be useful in setting up a user environment, in certain circumstances, the running of such scripts should be delegated to native windows capabilities where possible. These settings are powerful and can serve as a potential space for a privileged attacker to persist. By default, this setting is unconfigured. Should a site require this setting, ensure it is audited and the configuration valid at all times.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
