Details

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

mm/mempolicy: fix migrate_to_node() assuming there is at least one VMA in a MM

We currently assume that there is at least one VMA in a MM, which isn't true.

So we might end up having find_vma() return NULL, to then de-reference NULL. So properly handle find_vma() returning NULL.

This fixes the report:
