CVE-2026-64246
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: power: reset: linkstation-poweroff: fix use-after-free in the linkstation_poweroff_init() Move of_node_put(dn) after the of_match_node() call, which still needs the node pointer.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.12%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
