How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 tomcat-jsvc.

NVD Description

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

A flaw was found in JSS. A memory leak in JSS requires non-standard configuration but is a low-effort DoS vector if configured that way (repeatedly hitting the login page).
