How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 bison-runtime.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream bison-runtime package and not the bison-runtime package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

GNU Bison before 3.5.4 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash). NOTE: there is a risk only if Bison is used with untrusted input, and an observed bug happens to cause unsafe behavior with a specific compiler/architecture. The bug reports were intended to show that a crash may occur in Bison itself, not that a crash may occur in code that is generated by Bison.
