There is no fixed version for Centos:8 xterm-resize.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream xterm-resize package and not the xterm-resize package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
xterm before 375 allows code execution via font ops, e.g., because an OSC 50 response may have Ctrl-g and therefore lead to command execution within the vi line-editing mode of Zsh. NOTE: font ops are not allowed in the xterm default configurations of some Linux distributions.
