Running powershell script in pom.xml goals fails on linux only agents

[cotovanu-cristian]

Reproduction steps

1. In the pom.xml run a powershell script e.g:

   <execution>
   <id>Generate help files</id>
   <phase>generate-resources</phase>
   <goals>
       <goal>run</goal>
   </goals>
   <configuration>
       <target>
           <exec executable="powershell.exe">
               <arg value=".\GenerateHelpFiles.ps1 " />
           </exec>
       </target>
   </configuration>
   </execution>

2. Run the Jenkins Security Scan on PR

Expected Results

Expected the Scan to execute

Actual Results

The scan failed cause the agent did not have powershell.exe

Anything else?

In the pom.xml we run a powershell script running in the build goals, but the agent building the plugin in the security scan script is a linux agent thus it won't be capable of building the plugin used for the security assesment (https://github.com/jenkinsci/uipath-automation-package-plugin/blob/develop/pom.xml#L120C1-L126C41). What can we do to onboard to the Jenkins Security Scan?
