How to fix?

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:

drm/amdgpu: fix possible UAF in amdgpu_cs_pass1()

Since the gang_size check is outside of chunk parsing loop, we need to reset i before we free the chunk data.
