The Centos security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Centos:8.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-selftests-internal package and not the kernel-selftests-internal package as distributed by Centos.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PM: domains: fix memory leak with using debugfs_lookup()
When calling debugfs_lookup() the result must have dput() called on it, otherwise the memory will leak over time. To make things simpler, just call debugfs_lookup_and_remove() instead which handles all of the logic at once.
