Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am using CENTOS 7.
This should receive the Red Hat Update cycle releases until 2024, right?
Regards,
Thomas

Right.

This is not my understanding. From what I can see, updates which patches
CVEs are freely readable on Red Has site. For example:
CVE: https://access.redhat.com/security/cve/cve-2021-3156
UPDATE: https://access.redhat.com/errata/RHSA-2021:0221
Historically the CentOS team refused to provide such metadata due to the
added work required. Now with Stream, and the demise of classic CentOS,
security updates are even less probable (ie: a rolling release is often
wholly updated).
Regards.
