CVE-2026-64458

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

mm/damon/ops-common: handle extreme intervals in damon_hot_score()

Fix three issues in damon_hot_score() that comes from wrong handling of
extreme (zero or too high) monitoring intervals user setup.

When the user sets sampling interval zero, damon_max_nr_accesses(), which
is called from damon_hot_score(), causes a divide-by-zero.  Needless to
say, it is a problem.

When the user sets the aggregation interval zero, the function returns
zero.  It is wrong, since the real maximum nr_acceses in the setup should
be one.  Worse yet, it can cause another divide-by-zero from its caller,
damon_hot_score(), since it uses damon_max_nr_accesses() return value as a
denominator.

When the user sets the aggregation interval very high, damon_hot_score()
could return a value out of [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] range.  Since the return
value is used as an index to the regions_score_histogram array, which is
DAMOS_MAX_SCORE+1 size, it causes out of bounds array access.

The issues can be relatively easily reproduced like below.  The sysfs
write permission is required, though.

    # ./damo start --damos_action lru_prio --damos_quota_space 100M \
            --damos_quota_interval 1s
    # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0
    # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/sample_us
    # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/aggr_us
    # echo commit > state
    # dmesg

    [...]

Fix the divide-by-zero intervals problems by explicitly handling the zero
intervals in damon_max_nr_accesses().  Fix the out-of-bound array access
by applying [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] bounds before returning from
damon_hot_score().
