How to fix?

There is no fixed version for Centos:9 libperf-devel.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libperf-devel package and not the libperf-devel 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:

ipc: mqueue: fix possible memory leak in init_mqueue_fs()

commit db7cfc380900 ("ipc: Free mq_sysctls if ipc namespace creation failed")

Here's a similar memory leak to the one fixed by the patch above. retire_mq_sysctls need to be called when init_mqueue_fs fails after setup_mq_sysctls.
