CVE-2026-31471 is fixed in linux on 1 platform by DEBIAN-CVE-2026-31471 (version 6.19.11-1), released May 15, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: High.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xfrm: iptfs: only publish mode_data after clone setup iptfs_clone_state() stores x->mode_data before allocating the reorder window. If that allocation fails, the code frees the cloned state and returns -ENOMEM, leaving x->mode_data pointing at freed memory. The xfrm clone unwind later runs destroy_state() through x->mode_data, so the failed clone path tears down IPTFS state that clone_state() already freed. Keep the cloned IPTFS state private until all allocations succeed so failed clones leave x->mode_data unset. The destroy path already handles a NULL mode_data pointer.
