Kernel header revisions for Fedora 31 mitigate various security vulnerabilities. Review the instructions for correct implementation!
Linux 5.3.4

Summary

Kernel-headers includes the C header files that specify the interface

between the Linux kernel and userspace libraries and programs. The

header files define structures and constants that are needed for

building most standard programs and are also needed for rebuilding the

glibc package.
