There is no fixed version for Centos:7 perf.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perf package and not the perf package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: fix possible UAF in ip6_finish_output2()
If skb_expand_head() returns NULL, skb has been freed and associated dst/idev could also have been freed.
We need to hold rcu_read_lock() to make sure the dst and associated idev are alive.
