Last modified

CVE-2026-98721 is a vulnerability of currently unknown severity. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mtd: rawnand: cadence: Initialize IRQ state before requesting IRQ The Cadence NAND interrupt handler uses both the IRQ lock and completion object. Registering the IRQ before initializing them leaves a window in which a pending interrupt can access uninitialized synchronization state. Initialize them before registering the handler.. EPSS estimates a 0.20% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
