How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 cairo-gobject.

NVD Description

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

cairo-truetype-subset.c in cairo 1.15.6 and earlier allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (out-of-bounds read) because of mishandling of an unexpected malloc(0) call.
