How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:8 kernel-doc.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-doc package and not the kernel-doc 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:

netfilter: nf_queue: fix possible use-after-free

Eric Dumazet says: The sock_hold() side seems suspect, because there is no guarantee that sk_refcnt is not already 0.

On failure, we cannot queue the packet and need to indicate an error. The packet will be dropped by the caller.

v2: split skb prefetch hunk into separate change
