```
## Evidence
The test method cleanup is failing intermittently on the **CoreOnLinux** leg (net10.0 and net11.0), across 4 distinct rolling `main` builds — no PR-specific evidence.
- **Assembly:** `Microsoft.Build.Engine.UnitTests`
- **Class:** `Microsoft.Build.UnitTests.TaskEnvironment_Tests`
- **Method:** `TaskEnvironment_SetEnvironment_ShouldReplaceAllVariables` (both `environmentType: "Stub"` and `environmentType: "Multithreaded"` parameterizations)
- **Distinct rolling builds:** 4 ([1517682](https://dev.azure.com/dnceng-public/public/_build/results?buildId=1517682), [1527742](https://dev.azure.com/dnceng-public/public/_build/results?buildId=1527742), [1532844](https://dev.azure.com/dnceng-public/public/_build/results?buildId=1532844), [1536982](https://dev.azure.com/dnceng-public/public/_build/results?buildId=1536982))
- **Legs:** CoreOnLinux
- **TFMs:** net10.0, net11.0
- **First seen:** 2026-07-20
- **Last seen:** 2026-08-03
- **Sample error:** (cleanup failure — no error message captured)
## Source location
`src/Build.UnitTests/BackEnd/TaskEnvironment_Tests.cs`
## Notes
This test will be quarantined via `[ActiveIssue("")]` (from `Microsoft.DotNet.XUnitV3Extensions`, namespace `Xunit`) once this issue is confirmed open. The quarantine pipeline (def 344) will gather further signal. A real fix is tracked separately.

Research direction
Start in src/Build.UnitTests/BackEnd/TaskEnvironment_Tests.cs and inspect TaskEnvironment_SetEnvironment_ShouldReplaceAllVariables for the Stub and Multithreaded parameterizations. Confirm the issue is open, then apply the stated ActiveIssue quarantine and verify that the quarantine pipeline can track further failures; the underlying fix is tracked separately.
