There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-headers.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-headers package and not the kernel-headers package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:9 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
packet: annotate data-races around ignore_outgoing
ignore_outgoing is read locklessly from dev_queue_xmit_nit() and packet_getsockopt()
Add appropriate READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() annotations.
