 ## Changelog since v1.26.0
 
+## Known Issues
+
+### The PreEnqueue extension point doesn't work for Pods going to activeQ through backoffQ
+
+In v1.26.0, we've found the bug that the PreEnqueue extension point doesn't work for Pods going to activeQ through backoffQ. 
+It doesn't affect any of the vanilla Kubernetes behavior, but, may break custom PreEnqueue plugins.
+
+The cause PR is [reverted](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117194) by v1.26.1.
