How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:7 mod_proxy_html.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream mod_proxy_html package and not the mod_proxy_html package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

mod_lua.c in the mod_lua module in the Apache HTTP Server 2.3.x and 2.4.x through 2.4.10 does not support an httpd configuration in which the same Lua authorization provider is used with different arguments within different contexts, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions in opportunistic circumstances by leveraging multiple Require directives, as demonstrated by a configuration that specifies authorization for one group to access a certain directory, and authorization for a second group to access a second directory.
