There is no fixed version for Centos:7 php-enchant.

NVD Description

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

The SplObjectStorage unserialize implementation in ext/spl/spl_observer.c in PHP before 7.0.12 does not verify that a key is an object, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code or cause a denial of service (uninitialized memory access) via crafted serialized data.
