Note: Merged 2026-05-21. The patch separates pod name and namespace in GetPodNamespacedName so different objects do not share an ambiguous concatenated key. The earlier local test called the real helper with device operations substituted; it did not demonstrate traffic on a running cluster. This is a matching key correction, not a general network-policy bypass claim. CVE-2026-86831 concerns a different helper and patch and is not assigned to this record.
