If it doesn’t flake off, it could be scale. I had a succulent last summer with it and had to throw it out along with another plant. It can get on other plants so you should clean your other plants. Wipe the area it was in down with alcohol.

I know you can treat it, but I’ve heard it can be an extensive process.
