CVE-2026-74644CVE-2026-74644
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mm/damon/ops-common: putback folios on invalid migrate nid
damon_pa_migrate() and damos_va_migrate() isolate folios into a local list
and then call damon_migrate_pages(). When target_nid is invalid
(including the scheme default NUMA_NO_NODE / -1), damon_migrate_pages()
returns early without putting the folios back to the LRU.
Callers then discard the list head while those folios remain isolated with
an extra reference taken by folio_isolate_lru(). The pages stay off the
LRU for as long as the mapping exists (anon active+inactive counts drop
while RSS does not), and the leftover references can pin the pages after
the mapping is gone.
Put the folios back on the invalid-nid path so ignored migration requests
still return them to the LRU.
