How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 kernel-tools-libs-devel.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-tools-libs-devel package and not the kernel-tools-libs-devel 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:

afs: Fix server->active leak in afs_put_server

The atomic_read was accidentally replaced with atomic_inc_return, which prevents the server from getting cleaned up and causes rmmod to hang with a warning:

Can't purge s=00000001
