Research direction

Start with the MicrosoftSecurityDevOps task at version 1.6.0 and reproduce the pipeline validation with the organization’s “Disable Node6 tasks” setting enabled. Trace which execution handler causes the NodeJS 6 restriction; done means the pipeline validates and starts without relying on a disabled Node6 handler.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Our organization has "Disable Node6 tasks" turned on for security reasons at organization level. With this turned on, pipeline won't even start execution because of an error which says

"The pipeline is not valid. Job Job: Step 'MicrosoftSecurityDevOps' references task 'MicrosoftSecurityDevOps' at version '1.6.0' contains an execution handler that relies on NodeJS version '6' which is restricted by your administrator."
