Policy Tab Issue Persisting Across PAN-OS Versions

S.Jain712678 — Thu, 18 Jun 2026 08:20:02 GMT

Hello All,

The customer is currently running PAN-OS 11.1.15. This issue is reportedly addressed in this release; however, the customer continues to experience the same behavior.

Issue Description:

The issue is related to the Policy tab. The customer is unable to perform any policy management operations, including:

Adding new policies
Cloning existing policies
Enabling or disabling policies
Deleting policies

The customer has also encountered the same issue on PAN-OS 12.1.4-h5 and 12.1.4-h6, due to which they downgraded the device to PAN-OS 11.1.14. However, remaining on 11.1.14 is not a viable option because the customer needs to address the following security vulnerabilities:

CVE-2026-0273
CVE-2026-0257
CVE-2026-0264
CVE-2026-0265
CVE-2026-0263
CVE-2026-0261
CVE-2026-0259
CVE-2026-0262

Hello,

do you see backtrace files in cli using the command "less mp-backtrace ?". If so, do these files start with configd- and when you see the content, it shows a stack similar to this one:
