How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:8 kernel-debug-modules-internal.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-debug-modules-internal package and not the kernel-debug-modules-internal package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

nvdimm/btt: Free arenas on btt_init() error paths

The arenas allocated by discover_arenas() or create_arenas() are not freed on some error paths in btt_init(). This leaks memory when BTT initialization fails.

Call free_arenas() from the affected error paths to release the allocations.
