How to fix?

Upgrade RHEL:7 dpdk to version 0:18.11.8-1.el7_8 or higher.
This issue was patched in RHSA-2020:2683.

NVD Description

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

A memory corruption issue was found in DPDK versions 17.05 and above. This flaw is caused by an integer truncation on the index of a payload. Under certain circumstances, the index (a UInt) is copied and truncated into a uint16, which can lead to out of bound indexing and possible memory corruption.
