I didn't look at (all) changes in 2.3.1, but it sounds good, and 2.3.1 has been used in unstable/master for months.

2.3.1 changes the handling of /nix/var/nix/{profiles,gcroots} in an incompatible way so it's not really appropriate for a stable channel.

If we do backport it, then we probably need to cherry-pick 4e0d6a5, otherwise the security fixes in 2.3.1 are kind of pointless. Maybe also 27d2857 and 9d0de0d

Should this have been a major version bump?

Wait… this means, CVE-2019-17365 currently wasn't fixed in the stable channel at all?
