  "summary": "mm/damon/ops-common: handle extreme intervals in damon_hot_score()",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nmm/damon/ops-common: handle extreme intervals in damon_hot_score()\n\nFix three issues in damon_hot_score() that comes from wrong handling of\nextreme (zero or too high) monitoring intervals user setup.\n\nWhen the user sets sampling interval zero, damon_max_nr_accesses(), which\nis called from damon_hot_score(), causes a divide-by-zero.  Needless to\nsay, it is a problem.\n\nWhen the user sets the aggregation interval zero, the function returns\nzero.  It is wrong, since the real maximum nr_acceses in the setup should\nbe one.  Worse yet, it can cause another divide-by-zero from its caller,\ndamon_hot_score(), since it uses damon_max_nr_accesses() return value as a\ndenominator.\n\nWhen the user sets the aggregation interval very high, damon_hot_score()\ncould return a value out of [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] range.  Since the return\nvalue is used as an index to the regions_score_histogram array, which is\nDAMOS_MAX_SCORE+1 size, it causes out of bounds array access.\n\nThe issues can be relatively easily reproduced like below.  The sysfs\nwrite permission is required, though.\n\n    # ./damo start --damos_action lru_prio --damos_quota_space 100M \\\n            --damos_quota_interval 1s\n    # cd /sys/kernel/mm/damon/admin/kdamonds/0\n    # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/sample_us\n    # echo 0 > contexts/0/monitoring_attrs/intervals/aggr_us\n    # echo commit > state\n    # dmesg\n    [...]\n    [  131.329762] Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI\n    [...]\n    [  131.336089] RIP: 0010:damon_hot_score+0x27/0xd0\n    [...]\n\nFix the divide-by-zero intervals problems by explicitly handling the zero\nintervals in damon_max_nr_accesses().  Fix the out-of-bound array access\nby applying [0, DAMOS_MAX_SCORE] bounds before returning from\ndamon_hot_score().\n\nThe issue was discovered [1] by Sashiko.",
