+- Fixed a case where custom plugins specified by command line could silently fail.
 
+  Specifically, if a plugin relies on the ``init-hook`` option changing ``sys.path`` before
+  it can be imported, this will now emit a ``bad-plugin-value`` message. Before this
+  change, it would silently fail to register the plugin for use, but would load
+  any configuration, which could have unintended effects.
+
+  Fixes part of #7264. (`#7264 <https://github.com/PyCQA/pylint/issues/7264>`_)
 - Fix ``used-before-assignment`` for functions/classes defined in type checking guard.
