How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:10 kernel-modules-extra-matched.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-modules-extra-matched package and not the kernel-modules-extra-matched package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

KVM: x86: Ensure vendor's exit handler runs before fastpath userspace exits

Move the handling of fastpath userspace exits into vendor code to ensure KVM runs vendor specific operations that need to run before userspace gains control of the vCPU. E.g. for VMX (and soon to be for SVM as well), KVM needs to flush the PML buffer prior to exiting to userspace, otherwise any memory written by the final KVM_RUN might never be flagged as dirty.

Note, waiting to snapshot CR0 and CR3 until svm_handle_exit() is flawed in general, as that risks consuming stale state in a fastpath handler. That will be addressed in a future change.
