How to fix?

Upgrade Centos:8 shim-ia32 to version 0:15-14.el8_2 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream shim-ia32 package and not the shim-ia32 package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

GRUB2 fails to validate kernel signature when booted directly without shim, allowing secure boot to be bypassed. This only affects systems where the kernel signing certificate has been imported directly into the secure boot database and the GRUB image is booted directly without the use of shim. This issue affects GRUB2 version 2.04 and prior versions.
