There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 kernel-tools.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-tools package and not the kernel-tools 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/amd/display: Correct the defined value for AMDGPU_DMUB_NOTIFICATION_MAX
[Why & How] It actually exposes '6' types in enum dmub_notification_type. Not 5. Using smaller number to create array dmub_callback & dmub_thread_offload has potential to access item out of array bound. Fix it.
