Answer in brief
CVE-2026-98412 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in power: sequencing: fix NULL-pointer dereference in pwrseq_unit_new(). 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.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: sequencing: fix NULL-pointer dereference in pwrseq_unit_new() If memory allocation fails in pwrseq_unit_setup_deps(), pwrseq_unit_put() is called to release the partially initialized unit. However, we've never initialized unit->list and pwrseq_unit_release() will unconditionally call list_del() on it. Initialize unit->list right after allocating the unit struct.
