Answer in brief
CVE-2022-49928 records a High severity (CVSS 7.5) vulnerability in SUNRPC: Fix null-ptr-deref when xps sysfs alloc failed. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Linux/Linux (generic), Linux/Linux (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
CVSS is 7.5. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.
