There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 kernel-bootwrapper.

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-bootwrapper package and not the kernel-bootwrapper package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
i40e: Fix use-after-free in i40e_client_subtask()
Currently the call to i40e_client_del_instance frees the object pf->cinst, however pf->cinst->lan_info is being accessed after the free. Fix this by adding the missing return.
Addresses-Coverity: ("Read from pointer after free")
