How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:9 libperf-devel.

NVD Description

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

x86: shadow stacks: proper error handling for mmap lock

김영민 reports that shstk_pop_sigframe() doesn't check for errors from mmap_read_lock_killable(), which is a silly oversight, and also shows that we haven't marked those functions with "__must_check", which would have immediately caught it.

So let's fix both issues.
