In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mm/damon/ops-common: ignore migration request to invalid nodes

damon_migrate_pages() tries migration even if the target node is invalid. If users mistakenly make such invalid requests via DAMOS_MIGRATE_{HOT,COLD} action, the below kernel BUG can happen.

Add a target node validity check in damon_migrate_pages(). The validity check is stolen from that of do_pages_move(), which is being used for the move_pages() system call.
