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

NVD Description

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

fs/namespace: fix reference leak in grab_requested_mnt_ns

lookup_mnt_ns() already takes a reference on mnt_ns. grab_requested_mnt_ns() doesn't need to take an extra reference.
