Apply Copy Fail and DirtyFrag CVE mitigations at-scale using Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager

This post shows how to use Azure Kubernetes Fleet Manager to simplify the safe rollout of mitigations for CVE-2026-31431 ("Copy Fail") and CVE-2026-43284 / CVE-2026-43500 ("DirtyFrag") across multiple AKS clusters. This vulnerability allows a container to escalate to root on the node and impacts AKS Linux nodes until mitigations are applied. Existing nodes require either a node image upgrade or a self-service DaemonSet mitigation.
