There is no fixed version for RHEL:8 perf.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perf package and not the perf 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:
media: pci: cx23885: check cx23885_vdev_init() return
cx23885_vdev_init() can return a NULL pointer, but that pointer is used in the next line without a check.
Add a NULL pointer check and go to the error unwind if it is NULL.
