JFK-HEL FlightAware bug shows landed at Helsinki-Malmi

I have an upcoming flight JFK-HEL-BUD which I am nervous about as the connection time at HEL is 40 minutes. The opinion in this forums seems OK the the short connection.

However, I noticed yesterday that the JFK-HEL flight was landed at HEM (Helsinkin-Malmin) instead of Helsinki-Vantaa:

I thought that HEM is to be closed. In the event that my flight lands at HEM, will Finnair be responsible transporting me to HEL, as well as necessary accommodation?

SHould it happen, is it a case for EU Regulation 261/2004?

When I search flights in the iOS Flighttrack Pro 4.0, both JFK-HEL and JFK-HEM were listed at the same time in the past of several days. How often does the flight land at HEM?
