CentOS is downstream from the Coreutils project, so I suggest asking the 
CentOS maintainers instead of this mailing list.

Hello,

My name is Meirav Rath, I'm a software developer and security champion at Imperva.
As part of our effort to map security risks in our products I've been scanning our 3rd party rpms for vulnerabilities. It looks like coreutils available rpm for CentOS 7.9 (8.22) has the vulnerability CVE-2017-18018<https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2017-18018>.

When can we expect an updated RPM of a more advanced version with fixes for this issues, aimed for CentOS7.9?

Thanks.
