Authenticated sensitive-value disclosure via unmasked flow logs
Published May 12, 2026 · Updated May 12, 2026
Information disclosure in Microsoft Power Automate for desktop 2.62 through 2.66 allows remote authenticated users to read sensitive values in logs. A global sensitive variable used in a local subflow is written to Power Automate portal execution logs instead of being masked. Access requires an authorized portal account able to view the affected flow logs, and the consequence is limited to disclosure of logged variable values.
