How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 kernel-rt-debug.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-rt-debug package and not the kernel-rt-debug package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:8 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

drm/amdgpu: Fix size validation for non-exclusive domains (v4)

Fix amdgpu_bo_validate_size() to check whether the TTM domain manager for the requested memory exists, else we get a kernel oops when dereferencing "man".

v2: Make the patch standalone, i.e. not dependent on local patches. v3: Preserve old behaviour and just check that the manager pointer is not NULL. v4: Complain if GTT domain requested and it is uninitialized--most likely a bug.
