How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:9 kernel-rt-64k-debug-devel-matched.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-64k-debug-devel-matched package and not the kernel-rt-64k-debug-devel-matched package as distributed by Centos. See How to fix? for Centos:9 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

octeon_ep_vf: add NULL check for napi_build_skb()

napi_build_skb() can return NULL on allocation failure. In __octep_vf_oq_process_rx(), the result is used directly without a NULL check in both the single-buffer and multi-fragment paths, leading to a NULL pointer dereference.

Add NULL checks after both napi_build_skb() calls, properly advancing descriptors and consuming remaining fragments on failure.
